Help me give my students a time to collaboratively work together completing floor puzzles.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Axness's classroom raised $164

My Project

A big part of kindergarten is working together. Students love to do puzzles. They work together so peacefully and congratulate each other when the puzzle is complete.

Puzzles brain train!

The students are using so many problem solving skills they never realize how much their brain is working while completing a puzzle.

Hands on work as well as making friends make puzzles SHINE! Limited space in classrooms makes more students work together on one puzzle. Watching them work together is amazing and so rewarding. Puzzles prevail in my kindergarten classroom!
