LEGO Learning
Funded May 6, 2019I want to thank you all again for donating LEGOs in my classroom. We have had so much fun using them to learn and to play. The kids loving having them as an option during indoor recess.
When the kids first saw all the LEGOs, they were ecstatic! They could not believe that people helped to buy so many LEGOs for them to use. Some were even speechless. They have enjoyed having them so much and their creativity has flourished.
We are using the LEGOs to build settings for stories we have read and stories students wrote. Then students can choose how to retell the stories with stop motion animation, video, and Spheros. The possibilities are endless thanks to your generosity!”
With gratitude,

Funded Sep 4, 2018Our class participated in a Mystery Skype with another class in the United States. We had to use our geography and questioning skills to determine where in the United States the other class was located. The dry erase pockets and markers enabled the students to visually keep track of states that they eliminated and states that were still possibilities. We were able to successfully locate the other class in Tennessee.
The class was so excited to see that there are people who want them to be successful in school and who would donate their own money to make sure that could happen. Moving forward, we will be using the dry erase pockets for math and reading centers so multiple groups of students can complete work that enhances their understanding of various skills without having to constantly print multiple copies of assignments for the whole class.
Again, thank you so much for seeing the value of education and donating your hard earned money to support my class. You are appreciated.”
