The kids were so engaged. I have included photos of two of the projects we have completed thus far.\r\n\r\nThe first one involved print making in connection with our study of the invention of the printing press as an impetus to innovation and the spread of ideas during the Renaissance. The students developed an understanding of the printing process and had a bast. Because they could make multiple prints,the students began exchanging prints with each other to collect sets. One student exclaimed he was going to do this more at home.\r\n\r\nThe other project we used the materials for was to make a blizzard book to hold greek root trading cards we made. I was surprised at how unfamiliar with folding and measuring students were and was glad they had the experience to practice these skills in a creative way.\r\n\r\nThanks again for providing the materials for my students to tap into their creative sides while learning!","fullyFundedDate":1730397545011,"projectUrl":"project/creative-book-arts/8623199/","projectTitle":"Creative Book Arts","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Eisele","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2590581"},{"teacherId":9794025,"projectId":8859487,"letterContent":"As we turn the calendar page to the new year and look forward to switching out Book Club grades in the next few weeks, I would like to revisit a project you help fund in the fall and offer many thanks for the colorful daisy reading stools you had a hand in purchasing for the library. \r\n\r\nFrom the day the stools were delivered and unpacked, they have been used by the Book Club program as well as classroom students for an alternative style of seating for reading.
