Students recently completed their first Breakout challenge (using borrowed materials) and LOVED it! Breakouts allow students to practice 21st Century skills such as communication, collaboration, critical thinking and creativity. All of the sought for supplies will provide learners with a chance to solve puzzles related to the content that we are studying. The requested materials include a variety of locks, boxes as well as invisible ink and black light for four complete kits. This will allow learners to collaborate in smaller teams to really be immersed within this active learning experience. Every student said they wanted to do a 'Breakout' again and when I saw such engagement, I knew I had to try to get my own kits using DonorsChoose! One student shared that he loved the activity as all students were engaged; I couldn't agree more! I hope to be able to continue to engage my students in 21st Century skills practice as well as opportunities to learn and demonstrate their content knowledge. With funding, my students will be able to be more engaged in the learning process as well as learn and refine their skills in a fun and relaxed setting. I know my students will greatly appreciate your generosity, thank you so much for considering!
