Puzzles, Puzzles, and More Puzzles!

Help me give my students puzzles to promote their problem solving and fine motor skills!

My Project

My students love working with the puzzles in our class. We don't have enough for all of the students to work with at the same time. The floor puzzles and jigsaw puzzles promote collaboration among the students. They work together, learn from each other, and feel very successful when they complete a puzzle.

The puzzles will promote problem solving, collaborative play, encourage students to ask questions, and help with fine motor skills.

Your donation will make it possible for my students to become better problem solvers. They love working with puzzles and it would just make our class very excited and overjoyed to have enough puzzles for the entire class to work all at once.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
