"I'd lead kids on a trip to 'space' by purchasing a portable Planetarium from Star Lab and having teachers trained to use it. I'd also arrange field trips to our local planetarium, and order enough craft materials so that students could build their own solar systems."--Sue High "I'd stock up on drums and violins for the kids at our school who want to be involved with the band or chorus. It would be great to have the money to buy or rent an instrument. I'm so proud of our top-level concert band."--Frank Parente "We'd self contain the seventh grade. There would be an integrative, thematic curriculum with a focus on science. For example when studying animals, the children would read and write related fiction and nonfiction, research biomes, and use their math skills to create scale models of the animals they are studying."--Lorraine Lindon and Vinnie Reo "I'd buy 13 double kayaks, 26 paddles, 26 lifejackets, 2 storage sheds and begin a boating program. The school is within walking distance of a canal, and this is the kind of activity kids can enjoy for a lifetime. It would really enhance our Physical Education program. Thanks for the chance to dream!"--Sharyn Weikel |
