My Project

Dear Donors,

Our 5th grade class is in need of board games to help foster a sense of community and teamwork during our Friday choice time.

These games would provide an opportunity for students to practice collaboration, communication, and problem-solving while enjoying time together, all in a screen-free environment. By offering a fun and engaging way for students to bond, these games would greatly enhance their social skills and build a positive classroom culture. If you’re able to donate any suitable board games, we would be incredibly grateful for your support.

Sincerely,

Laura

Ms. Laura Lowell Elementary School Grades 3-5
