Hands on Learning Under Construction

Funded Oct 24, 2018

Thank you so much for your generosity in helping my students grow and learn with creative STEM activities. They absolutely loved trying to make the magnet rings attract or repel to make the pattern. The water blocks were a fun way to work on how to stack them so the base stayed afloat. They also did a lot of talk about shapes and block size while building with them. The magnetic tiles are a big hit. These boys and girls were building "Santa's sleigh". They discussed what they needed to make the sleigh, what shape, and what purpose each part would serve. It was exciting to see them thinking about why they were building their structure in that manner. They enjoy the "I Can Build It" kit because of a large variety of direction cards. Instead of just building cars and robots; we got penguins, helicopters, and clowns. Again thank you for expanding my classroom learning opportunities and making it fun for our young learners.”
