I teach 144 fourth graders Science at our school. These Breakout Boxes will give them the opportunity to show their knowledge in a new and exciting way.
My students love learning and taking active role in their education our classroom.
They come to class ready to learn and excited to explore science. They are positive and caring young learners who are always striving to do their best. Their excitement and enthusiasm are contagious as they are eager to always learn more about the world around them.
My Project
Hello there! My name is Monica Naugler. I teach Fourth grade Science and I am looking to raise money to buy the six Breakout EDU Boxes for my fourth graders. I want to make my Science classroom an engaging and exciting place for my students, and using Breakout Boxes are the perfect way to help!
Breakout Boxes are built on the idea that education should be more than just notes and reading; education should be exciting and engaging for students.
These boxes allow students to work together to solve puzzles and problems in any subject. Solving them correctly allows them to complete the goal of "breaking out of the box". It encourages teamwork, communication, collaboration, and accuracy. It helps students to see that failure and perseverance are a part of the learning process, and that we can use our failures to help us move towards our goal. When students are working together to complete a Breakout Box challenge they are actively applying their knowledge while working together to practice problem-solving.
These boxes create a fun and engaging atmosphere for students! This bundle provides us with six boxes and access to the online platform where I can create new games for my students as well as allow my students to create their own Breakout Box games.
Please consider donating so that we can begin using these boxes in our classroom this fall! No donation is too small! Thank you in advance.
