They planned and created miniature buildings out of recyclable boxes that they covered in paper. They used tissue paper, pom poms, modeling clay, gravel, sandpaper, and other repurposed recyclables to create the city of their dreams! Kids collaborated with others, problem solved, and persevered through challenges while working through the engineering design process. \r\n\r\nThis quickly became an all time favorite project for my second and third graders. They love to build, make, and create. And for them to be able to innovate with a variety of resources we don't normally use was a dream come true. The hands on learning from this project has given my students knowledge about different types of buildings, what buildings and cities need, attention to detail, and inspiration for how they want their community and world to be.","fullyFundedDate":1765077104617,"projectUrl":"project/civic-engagement-through-building-a-mini/9937591/","projectTitle":"Civic Engagement Through Building A Miniature City","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Argue","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5295091_orig.jpg?crop=1481,1481,x1491,y705&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1764643212612","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/5295091"},{"teacherId":696744,"projectId":9842180,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for donating to my classroom and this project.

Students have been highly engaged and enthusiastic, and it has already helped them improve their gymnastics skills. It has truly enhanced our gymnastics unit.\r\n\r\nAll of our students—approximately 350 children from kindergarten through fifth grade—are benefiting from this equipment, making it a valuable and meaningful addition to our physical education program.\r\n\r\nThank you again for your generosity and support.

These materials are highly engaging and have the kids completely interested. The puzzles are highly challenging and naturally bring kids together to collaborate to solve them. Kids love the joke books since they can read with a friend, and the bright photographs and fun captions and font really help the kids stay focused and they love reading different jokes out loud!

I always have a running list of engaging new titles that align with our learning and grade level, which would make good additions to our classroom.

This project has allowed my incoming first grade students to quickly identify their materials and independently put them away after using. \r\n\r\nThe new whiteboards have also been a great addition to the classroom so students can practice their phonics and math skills on clean boards with no leftover marks from previous classes that won't erase.
