Outdoor Block Building!

Funded Aug 30, 2010

This letter is a testament to the joy my students have while using their new outdoor hollow blocks during math time. They are exploring balance, size, shape and elements of geometry while having a great time working together in a small group. We have taught the children how to take care of the blocks, take them out and put them away carefully, and to use them for their intended purpose of building. The wood is so lovely that the children just know they are working with special materials.

It is so wonderful to have the ability to create a hands-on learning experience that the children love to do and that enables them to learn in such an organic manner.

Thank you again so much for funding our project.”
