My Project

My students enjoy building and creating. I am always amazed at their creations! Their ideas are endless. Today we created colorful monsters using our plus building blocks, but a few students didn't have enough blocks to complete their monsters. Therefore, they had to modify their ideas to use fewer blocks. The monster-building activity was an extension activity to our read-aloud "The Colorful Monster", which is a story about emotions.

The "Lego-like" building blocks and brain flakes will be added tools used for STEM projects.

These building blocks and brain flakes will allow students to build creative creations.

Thank you for considering donating to our second-grade classroom.
