My Project
Students will build important creative and critical thinking skills using Legos, looms, and magnetic tiles. The trays are there to keep everything contained.
With Legos, they’ll explore concepts like symmetry, balance, and spatial awareness while designing imaginative structures.
Looms will introduce them to basic weaving techniques, helping them understand patterns, repetition, and fine motor coordination. Magnetic tiles offer a hands-on way to explore geometry, shape recognition, and structural design. Trays will help keep materials organized and contained, making it easier for students to focus on their work, clean up independently, and take ownership of their creative spaces.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
