Funded Nov 28, 2023As a result of your support I have been able to visit classrooms with enough magnatiles for an entire class to be engaged in various engineering activities. Recently, we began using the magnatiles to make ramps to race cars! Students have been working collaboratively to create ramps and race cars. When I visit classrooms with my cart full of magnatiles kids come running with excitement to greet me at the door!
Part of your generous donations was used to buy magnatile "kits" with themes such as, farm, jungle, arctic and construction. Students have loved role playing with these materials and teachers have loved the engagement they see from students who are typically shy and quiet. These students love creating scenes with the magnatiles and talking about what they are doing. Having a variety of ideas and materials has made a huge impact on student learning!
As a result of this project, our entire school has been able to engage in play-based learning and engineering and we cannot be more thankful!”
With gratitude,
Ms. Rampino
