The students really enjoy having a variety of items to learn from and it also helps that the items make learning fun for them. My students were very excited when I put these new Math manipulatives out on our shelf for them to explore and use. These items will help them to grown in their number sense, counting, colors, shapes, patterning, and other math concepts. It is very much appreciated.","fullyFundedDate":1767039648790,"projectUrl":"project/stem-learning-for-littles-made-fun/9970003/","projectTitle":"STEM Learning for Littles Made Fun!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Scully","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7484562"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_38186","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":438,"numTeachers":27,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":20,"percentWhite":38,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":28,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":12,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"16.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":52.0,"schoolId":38186,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Converse Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Converse Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/wisconsin/school-district-of-beloit/converse-elementary-school/38186"}
