Mr. Maylander’s Classroom Edit display name

BreakoutEDU is one of the best hands-on learning tools I've encountered so far in my educational career. It combines the fun of an escape room with the rigor of classroom learning, and it engages even the most difficult of students to reach. Students use teacher-created clues to solve puzzles and locks in order to open a special box. Kids love BreakoutEDU activities, and learn a lot about teamwork and working together on top of the curriculum the box is set up for. BreakoutEDU boxes can be modified for any activity and any subject, making them a versatile tool for teachers to have in their repertoire. They are perfect for our school, which has made a focused effort to provide kinesthetic activities through project-based learning. I've used these boxes in a previous district with great success, and I know my students would eat these projects up if we could afford to purchase them. Purchasing a classroom set of 6 would allow my students to push each other to succeed by competing against each other. BreakoutEDU teaches collaboration, creativity, critical thinking and communication skills. These boxes can be used by teachers in every subject, and the online access is a treasure-trove of resources for instructors. I know what I'm asking for is no small chunk of change, but I truly believe donating to this cause is one of the best investments in education you could make. Thank you for your time and your donation!
