WEF Grant Money at Work Burnett Teachers Collaborate & Learn From Neighboring Districts
Through an innovation grant from the Wiseburn Education Foundation, Burnett Elementary School was able to provide teachers with release time to collaborate with teachers in neighboring districts to strengthen their math instruction and grow their learning community. On January 31, 2019, the 5th grade team visited Center Street Elementary in El Segundo and spent the morning in Valerie Sandowicz’s 5th grade class. Burnett Principal Kim Jones thanked WEF “for supporting our teachers in their professional growth” through this grant, which enabled these teachers “to learn and plan together.” The 3rd and 4th grade teams will also get to take part in these collaborations in the coming weeks.
Anza Elementary Winter Wonderland These “Snowy Night Scenes”, painted on black velvet, were funded by an innovation grant from the Wiseburn Education Foundation awarded to Ms. Graham and Ms. Polizzi to create this wonderful multi-disciplinary project at Juan de Anza Elementary. The Winter Wonderland exhibit was created by Ms. Graham’s 3rd-5th grade student artists in collaboration with the music program. Students also created their own artwork on tin and embossed it with a scene inspired by the story and film exhibited as part of the Winter Wonderland performance. The exhibit will remain on display through the end of March.
STEAM Night Showcases New Technologies Anza Elementary also hosted a fabulous, interactive evening on Thursday, January 31st showcasing a variety of new technologies. WEF proudly provided funding for innovation grants to several educators at Anza to support the purchase of 3D printers as well as Cue Robots. The evening was fun for parents and students alike, allowing participants to experience first-hand the design thinking process and celebrate the successes of students. Keep an eye out for Eagle Expo coming this Spring!
