For the second year in a row, Tehaleh Heights Elementary kicked off their Raise Craze fundraiser with a fun and exciting STEM-focused twist!
This Washington State school is on the cutting edge of innovation and made sure that their Raise Craze campaign reflected just that. Here are a few of the ways these “trailblazers” were able to incorporate learning while spreading kindness!
Kindness Coins Tracked Via Google Maps
When students received a Kindness Coin, they were encouraged to pay it forward by recognizing someone else who was kind to them. Many students mailed their kindness coin to a family member or loved one in a different state. If you received a coin, you were encouraged to log it on their awesome website so it would appear on the Google Map!
Custom Kindness Coins were designed by their PTA and printed through 4Imprint under the product name, “Wooden Nickels”
Goal Tracker On Space-Themed Pulley System
To track their donations and acts of kindness, they created an amazing space-themed pulley system that doubled as a goal tracker. Each day, they updated the chart by launching the spaceship higher and higher.. These “everyday engineers” are so creative!
Bar Graph Paper Chains for Acts of Kindness
In addition to tracking their completed acts of kindness in the software, the students went one step further by tracking them via paper chains as well. As they watched the chains grow during the fundraiser, they were motivated and excited to keep the kindness going!
