  • Project Learning with Games

    Funded Oct 15, 2021

    The Project Learning with Games project has been funded! Thank you to all donors for making this possible. My students have been able to engage in lessons and stay focused much better thanks to the these awesome games they get to play. We are so grateful for all the generosity! When I told my students that people all over the country helped purchase these new learning games they were ecstatic. It sparked something in them to continue being kind and caring, because complete strangers were kind and caring to them. Now, every morning we always go through how we can be kind and caring to others and shout out students who displayed this type of behavior during the week. It quickly became our favorite part of the day. Again, thank you all for your generosity.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Silva
