Help me give my students things like a Breakout EDU kit, ink cartridges, and cardstock paper to enhance critical thinking and collaboration in my classroom.
My first-grade students love to learn. Every morning they walk into our classroom with a big smile. They love to read, to be read to, play math games, work on coding, and write stories. They are curious and inquisitive children, and they challenge me every day to grow with them and be the best I can be.
We work hard to create a classroom community where students can explore, wonder, and discover the world around them.
We ask questions, share our ideas, expand our learning environment using technology, and publish our work to share with the world. They work and collaborate with one another to learn.
Our school also focuses on character building. Children's kindness and compassion are recognized and celebrated. We are proud to be a part of an amazing school. We are a family. We learn, play, laugh, and grow together!
My Project
BreakoutEDU requires students to solve several clues to unlock the locks that are attached to a box. Content knowledge is incorporated into lock code clues. When students successfully solve the lock codes, they get to open the box to discover what's hidden inside. These treasure hunt type activities are highly engaging to the students.
BreakoutEDU is a perfect way to gamify learning and challenge students' teamwork and critical thinking in the classroom.
Students cannot wait to apply their learning into real life problem solving! Please support my project to bring more excitement in learning!
