My Project
Being able to use the duplo blocks on a daily basis will give my students the opportunities that unfortunately they don't get at home. Fine motor skills are so important for students when it comes to writing.
Using the blocks will increase their awareness of STEM and working together as a community.
Duplo blocks will give my students the chance to be creative while working to build a variety structures that are found in their neighborhood and community.
Increasing their fine motor skills is also a positive of the blocks.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
