Let’s Learn and Explore

Funded Oct 23, 2022

Using engaging ways to make learning fun all begins with a topic of interest and for my class it was "Our Universe!" Working collaboratively in small groups is our district focus this year and the students are happy and excited to share their ideas. The "Let's Learn & Explore" supplies made it possible for students to share in creative, artistic, and engineering based ways. We read and wrote about our universe and astronauts, made a rocket ship with colored papers, and ended with a performance task that required each small group to build a rocket launchpad using the Magna Tiles. So many questions and learning followed to get their little minds thinking and exploring - how can you make your launchpad stronger, why did you build it going up, what other ideas do you have for a different design, and can you find ways to use all the tiles given with purpose.

Helping to discover a love for learning and using different modes of exploration is my passion and I am thankful that you chose to help get the minds of our next generation thinking beyond our universe!”

With gratitude,
