  • Rolling with Sphero Robots!

    Funded Feb 14, 2025

    I would like to express my sincere appreciation for your generous donation to our STEM classroom. Over the past few months, my students have thoroughly enjoyed learning how to code, and the addition of new robots has ignited a remarkable level of enthusiasm and engagement among them.

    The opportunity to code and see their creations come to life through robotics elevates their learning experience significantly. This is particularly impactful for my students, as they are newly introduced to coding through our recently established STEM class. The integration of new tools and technology into our lab will undoubtedly broaden their educational horizons.

    Thank you once again for your support in providing my students with valuable exposure to advanced technology.”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Matasavage

  • (3D) Print Your Imagination!

    Funded Mar 6, 2025

    Thank you for donating to my students. They are going to be so excited to have a 3D printer to work with! I love adding new tools to our STEM lab to allow my students to be exposed to several different tools so adding a 3D printer to the lab is going to be just what we needed. Thank you again! Your generosity is truly unmatched!”

  • STEM Supplies to Keep Learning!

    Funded Jan 30, 2025

    Thank you again for helping provide my new STEM lab with materials to help us keep learning! We have been building and engineering all year long and these materials are going to help us to keep building and creating! We go through so much tape with our builds and our supply has helped us to keep those builds happening. We have been using the markers to help us bring our builds to life with color. I can't thank you enough for helping to supply my students with all the materials that they need in order to keep those builds happening. The students have been so excited to create even more.”

  • Duplo Legos for Young Learners

    Funded Aug 14, 2024

    Thank you so much for supporting my students and our brand new stem lab to our school this year. We use these bricks on the very first week of school for my little Learners in kindergarten and first grade. Having those larger bricks as they're developing their fine motor skills really help them to be able to put their creativity to the test and create something from their imagination. We did an all about me brick build to learn about each other for the first week of school and the students had the best time building with their dupo bricks. Thank you for supporting my students, my school and myself on this new journey that we are embarking on with stem.”

  • STEM, Coding, Robotics, Oh My!

    Funded Feb 22, 2024

    Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping my students have access to Dash Robots. I am starting a new program for our school. Having robots and learning how to code is an important activity for Stem. Every time the students see dash and how he works, they are filled with excitement and can't wait to explore and learn how to code. Anytime the student walk in and see Dash they are always asking if we are working with him for the day. The excitement is unmatched.

    Thank you again for your generosity. Your donation is going to go so far for our students.”

  • STEM Through Snap Circuits

    Funded May 15, 2024

    I teach students from kindergarten to eighth grade and these snap circuits can be used in a wide range of ages. My students have been so excited to explore using snap circuits. They were so excited when they saw how cool they looked from the outside of the box. I plan to use these circuits in the near future for my fourth graders and up. We have looked at the materials and what we received so they are excited to put their knowledge to the test.

    Starting a new STEM program is difficult because it requires so many materials so having items like snap circuits will help to give my students another manipulative to use to learn.”

I always am trying to encourage my students to think outside of the box. I want students to explore their learning and apply it in several ways. A Breakout Edu box will help my students to be challenged and apply their learning in a new and exciting way. I want to have my students engage in a variety of different ways and a breakout box will help with this. I think that students need to develop critical thinking skills and always keep challenging themselves in any way that they can.
