What began as a single classroom tool has grown into a vibrant, student-led movement, and your generosity is what allows our new 3D Printing Club to take flight. By providing these essential supplies, you aren't just helping students \"make things\"—you are helping them become technicians and engineers. It is a joy to see our students move from simple curiosity to the deep, hands-on problem-solving that comes with maintaining and repairing their own equipment.\r\n\r\nThe technical impact of your gift is immense. The replacement hotend kits, heating blocks, and hardened nozzles mean that when a printer inevitably wears down from heavy use, our students don't face downtime; they face a learning opportunity. With the new printer enclosures and textured build plates, our workspace has become more professional and safe, allowing for consistent, high-quality results. Furthermore, the precision scales and vibrant filament bundles give our students the raw materials to move from basic prototypes to complex, multi-colored designs that they can be truly proud of.","fullyFundedDate":1768579058900,"projectUrl":"project/eam-strong-lets-do-this/10019125/","projectTitle":"EAM Strong-Let's Do This!","teacherDisplayName":"Dr. Peters","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp681592_orig.jpg?crop=4023,4023,x0,y40&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1687310853357","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrs-peters"},{"teacherId":681592,"projectId":10026395,"letterContent":"Thank you for helping us turn our new house into a home.

By replacing the essential items lost in the fire, you are helping our middle schoolers reclaim their focus and settle into this new chapter with the tools they need to succeed.\r\n\r\nThe impact of these seemingly simple items is profound. The new headphones are already serving as vital tools for differentiated learning—offering quiet to those who need to concentrate, music for those who find focus in rhythm, and clear oral directions for those who need extra support.

We are using the ladders in warm-ups, skill stations, and fitness circuits to help students improve footwork, balance, coordination, and speed. One of our first lessons involved a ladder circuit where students practiced different step patterns and timed themselves to see improvement from round to round. They were excited to challenge themselves and cheer on their classmates as they worked to get faster and more precise with each attempt.\r\n\r\nWhen the ladders first arrived, the students were immediately curious and eager to try them. They couldn't wait to set them up on the gym floor and start moving through the patterns. The bright colors and hands-on nature of the equipment made the lesson feel more like a game, which helped even hesitant students jump in and participate with confidence.\r\n\r\nOur next steps are to build on these skills by connecting the ladder work to larger movement goals, such as agility in team sports, reaction time, and injury prevention. Students will begin creating their own ladder patterns and fitness challenges, then reflect on how their coordination and speed improve over time.
