We often forget the power of play, and the impact that exploring through play can have on our developing minds. What I have witnessed thus far is that students not only are able to use these items to work on large and fine motor skills, but they are negotiating differences and learning how to lead as well as follow directions. \r\n\r\nThe fort building has been a huge hit. Especially since we are learning about polar bears and penguins, students have gravitated toward building igloos. This was not a teacher directed activity. Rather, students chose to expand their learning into their daily choice time activities. The kit came with instructions, so students were eager to open the pamphlet and begin directing their friends through their build. I even had a TK student who is 4 years old take the lead. She began telling the students to, \"...build a hexagon. Okay, now set the hexagon on the floor.\"\r\n\r\nThe letter kit has been perfect for further establishing letter concepts, especially for my students who are struggling with letter names and sounds. Turning it into a fun building activity has really helped them to grasp the alphabetic principal.","fullyFundedDate":1765252284242,"projectUrl":"project/fe-architects/9887505/","projectTitle":"FE Architects","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Young","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5556281_orig.jpg?crop=750,750,x0,y170&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1572700446982","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/5556281"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_39824","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":118,"numTeachers":5,"percentFrplEligible":87,"percentAsian":4,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":23,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":70,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"23.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":75.8,"schoolId":39824,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Farmington Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Farmington Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/escalon-unified-school-district/farmington-elementary-school/39824"}
