During read-alouds, they point to the pictures, make connections to foods they know, and ask thoughtful questions about what happens \"underground.\"\r\n\r\nWhile our composting bins are waiting for their big debut, the books have already helped us build background knowledge and spark conversations about caring for the earth. One student proudly told me, \"Banana peels help the dirt!\" after we read a story together.\r\n\r\nOur next step is to use the bins alongside the books, so students can see the real-life process they've been reading about.

It was the first time some of the kids had ever used tools. Once the cubbies were together, every broke out in a loud cheer. They were so proud, it was just beautiful. We unrolled the rug and decided where to put it. As soon as the rug was in place the student ran over to sit on it. \r\nThere are no words that really cover the way your kindness and generosity left an impact on our class.

We have enough supplies left to make another project.\r\n The new computer allows more children to explore and discover the magic of the Makey Makey at one time. Banana piano is our next project, we have already play the play dough ball piano and the bongo drums.

The projector light has sparked many creative experiences from pretending to be under the sea to being chased by dinosaures, the creativity these supplies have ignited continues to amaze me.\r\n\r\nNow the most loved gift we received from this project has most definitely been the spinning sensory chair! Again the creativity sparked by it has been spectacular to see. Yes, of course my kiddos LOVE spinning while expanding their vocabularies with action words and phrases like \"go fast\" and \"slow down\" and \"I'm dizzy\".
