Let’s Build

Help me give my students the inspiration to build. Legos are great tools for young children to create and use their imagination to design.

My Students

My students are creative, thoughtful, and full of questions! They absolutely love hands-on, active, engaging projects and challenges that allow them to think outside the box to find solutions! They come to school each day ready to try new things and take brave chances in order to grow both personally and academically.

Our school is nestled in the heart of Brooklyn, East New York.

Each child in my classroom absolutely loves learning, although the method and environment in which they learn best vary greatly. We incorporate a variety of learning strategies, group work, and alternative seating and learning options to ensure that each student's needs are met, right where they are! They are truly an incredible group, and I am so lucky and thankful to have a new group of learners that are excited and ready to learn each year!

My Project

By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement.

Legos are such a child friendly manipulative for students to use.

They will be growing their minds using legos to build whatever they can imagine. I cannot wait for my students to be able to have legos to use in the classroom.

Right now we do not have a playground to use and have to stay indoors all day long. The use of materials to keep them thinking about what they can create would be an amazing addition to our classroom.
