The Playmobil Grants for Teachers Program will award cash prizes and toys for classrooms of teachers who submit creative lesson plans that use Playmobil toys to encourage children to use their imaginations. Educators can submit lesson plans for consideration through November 15, 2009.
Playmobil Teacher Grant Program
Early elementary teachers currently teaching children in grades Kindergarten through third grade at an accredited elementary school located in the United States can each submit one entry to the Playmobil Teacher Grant Program.
Entries to the Playmobil Grant Program can be mailed in or emailed. Visit the main page of the Playmobil USA Web site to download a PDF with the complete rules and regulations for this creativity in the classroom grant program.
Playmobil will award 22 prizes made up of a combination of cash prizes and toys for classrooms.
Playmobil lesson plans
When developing their creative Playmobil lesson plans, teachers should consider how best to use Playmobil toys to develop elementary students' imaginations. Educators can visit the Playmobil Web site to view information about all of the different Playmobil themes.
The Playmobil elementary lesson plans must meet certain requirements, such as following a set format, being at least two pages long, using Playmobil toys as their main focus, and being accompanied by a one-page letter that explains how the entrant's school will benefit from being awarded a grant as part of this Playmobil Grants for Teachers Program.
Playmobil lesson plans for elementary students will be judged by criteria such as how well they inspire creativity, their educational content, their originality, and how easily a teacher could use them in the classroom.
