Indoor Explorers

Help me give my students tools to explore and develop their creative side.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Johnson's classroom raised $289

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our school is in rural northeastern South Dakota where the winters can get pretty brutal. When the temperature drops below zero, we need to stay indoors for recess. Please help me provide my students with fun tools that will help foster and develop their creativity. We are also asking for snack dispensers so the students may independently get themselves dry cereal that I provide for those who do not have a snack at school.

These magnetic building blocks will help my students use their minds to build fun projects while also practicing the social skills of working and sharing with their peers.
