FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. D. LEE's classroom raised $305

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students are amazing creators and problem solvers. We do tons of small group intentional teaching. We are encouraging students to problem solve and use their cognitive thinking skills while playing. Our class will use the storage boxes to keep every LEGO in its place and ready for tabletop fun during free-choice time. This new LEGO center will provide cognitive-developmental gains and promote problem-solving. Students love magnets and the magnets will provide building opportunities while learning shapes. We will also use these in the LEGO Center to give students choices of interest while playing.
