My students need penguins on ice, hide and seek pirates, color code and other brain teasers to help them gain critical thinking skills!
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Smith's classroom raised $314

My Students
My students love to work with their hands! After they have finished their seat work my students are looking for a way to to stay occupied. Right now each one of my students will read until everyone is ready to move on but I would like to add more STEM to our room.
My students go to a Title 1 school and they all come from low-income households.
Many of my students have never played a mind puzzle or brain teaser game. We have one in our classroom and it is the most coveted item! My students dream of having more in our room.
My Project
These resources would be used to help introduce children to STEM and critical thinking. After students finish their work they will be able to get a brain teaser to quietly complete at their seat. These are all pre-differentiated and students of all abilities will be able to partake. For example a game such as "Day And Night" and "Castle Logix" will help students become engaged in an activity that helps them actively grow their brains.
Your donation will help an entire classroom of kids get a head start on critical thinking which they desperately need.
These children will also be able to start their future in STEM which is a needed skill in today's society. Games like Penguins On Ice will help students gain foresight and continue to grow neural pathways in the brain.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
