Students are using the science materials to conduct hands-on investigations that help them make real-world connections. One of our favorite moments so far was during a simple experiment on mixtures and solutions—students worked in groups, observed changes, recorded data, and excitedly shared their discoveries with each other. The headphones have also supported small-group rotations, allowing students to focus during digital science lessons, while the Lysol wipes and tissues have helped us maintain a clean and healthy learning environment so everyone can participate fully.\r\nWhen students first saw the new materials, their faces lit up with excitement. Many of them immediately started asking, \"Can we use them today?\" and \"What experiment are we doing next?\" Their enthusiasm showed just how much these resources mean to them.
