We Love Puzzles!

Funded Jan 23, 2024

The Floor Puzzles were such great presents for my classroom students. Almost every day we are putting 5-6 puzzles together, and at the same time the students are talking about the pictures that are on the puzzles.They are learning numbers, alphabet, United States or World map, solar system, transportations, seasons, different cultures, sea animals, etc. Having great discussions and predictions of what pieces are coming next. All the puzzles also led to really great conversations about the team work and other issues that preschoolers often deal with.

It took almost a month when I saw students were fully engage and concentrate on putting the puzzles together. A number of students who were working with complicated puzzles were trying to do the same puzzles over and over, and at the same time more classmates started helping them and then they started working together. When we have visitors or parents in our classroom, then we hear how impressed they are about our classroom students' teamwork. How older students are helping and involving other students to work together, because some of the puzzles are not easy.

It was a great set of puzzles for all ages and different levels of difficulties.

This fabulous experience grew us as a great group of students, who were able to bond as a team. We will continue this tradition in serving our school . We appreciate all that you have done to make this dream come true!”
