Many of my students did not know how to share before, and these engaging materials have given them a fun, hands-on way to learn and practice together.\r\n\r\nI will never forget the moment when my students first saw the new materials—their eyes lit up with excitement, and they immediately wanted to explore, build, and create. The room was filled with joy as they worked side by side, figuring out how to make marble runs taller, faster, and more creative. It was a perfect mix of fun and learning.\r\n\r\nThanks to your generosity, my students now have resources that truly engage and interest them. The next steps for us are to continue building on these experiences by creating group projects where students collaborate to design larger marble runs and Lego structures.
