Mrs. Putnam from Afton WY is requesting educational kits & games through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Play a Little, and Learn a Lot!

Help me give my students Legos that are developmentally appropriate so that my students can learn essential skills through play.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

These materials will help stock our classroom with Legos from the Lego education line, which will help my students engage in important social-emotional skills.

Learning through play will engage students, increase classroom morale, create a culture of working together, and foster students' communication with one another in productive ways.

It would be a wonderful opportunity to have students have resources that they are able to use with peers to have fun while learning valuable skills they need to succeed. We are asking for sets of Legos and a math balance for the students to be able to use and enjoy in our classroom. Thank you for your time!
