I wish you could see the smiles and joy on my students' faces!\r\n\r\nWhen I brought out the Chomp-Chomp Saw, the room filled with ooohs and ahhhs. The students couldn't believe this incredible machine would be something they could actually use. For our first project, we traced friendly ghosts onto the cardboard pieces you provided. Then, one at a time, each student came to the saw with me right beside them to safely cut out their shape. Afterwards, they painted their ghosts and hung them in our classroom. They'll get to take them home on Halloween—and they can't wait!\r\n\r\nNext, we'll dive into problem-solving by building three-dimensional creations that serve a purpose. For example, I'll set up a \"river\" with a toy elephant on one side and challenge students to invent something to help the elephant cross. Once we've built our skills, we plan to invite a 5th-grade class to join us. I'm excited to see creativity and collaboration spread!\r\n\r\nThank you for your kindness and generosity.

Students have been building and programming incredible creations, like a ferris wheel that actually spins. I have them work in groups of three, rotating through our LEGO station to build, present their projects to the class, and then make way for the next group. It's been a wonderful way to foster creativity and collaboration.\r\n\r\nThanks to your support, I was also able to restock and refresh our art supplies.
