sorts of things,” Rozanas said, “not just for drawing, but for math problems as well.” Schultz, who teaches music, hopes to buy a panel of fencing to prop up their very own musical instruments, one that also has plenty of containers that create all kinds of sounds. “We’re excited because not only is that an advantage for a music teacher like myself, but we can discuss the science of sound,” she said. Amy Tomlinson, a pre-kindergarten teacher at Oregon Elementary, plans to use her money to create a safe and cozy learning area for her students. Creating better learning environments also were the missions of Nikki Smith of Aplington Middle School in Polo, and Elizabeth Zinke of Amboy High School. Carisa Swanson’s class at Centennial Elementary in Polo will benefit from additional science and engineering tools, and Emily Majewski’s second grade class will find it easier to learn about nonfiction books, fables and folk tales with about 100 new books. Grants also were awarded to five teachers in Rochelle schools. The Mt. Morris library has utilized $2,704.43 in money granted in the last three years for board games, children’s activities, bean bag chairs for children’s section, golf clubs for the library’s miniature golf fundraiser, and a Lego robotics kit that has become very popular with the children, library director Mary Cheatwood said.
