We are incredibly grateful for your support and for the opportunity you've given our students to learn in such an engaging, hands-on way. When the materials were first introduced, the excitement in the room was immediate—students' faces lit up as they explored the bins, eagerly asking questions and sharing ideas. The energy and curiosity they showed from the very first moment made it clear that these materials would have a meaningful impact on our learning environment.\r\n\r\n Since then, students have been using the materials to design and build a wide variety of structures, experimenting with different shapes, sizes, and levels of strength. They tested their designs, made adjustments, and worked collaboratively to solve problems when things didn't go as planned. Through this process, students strengthened their understanding of balance, stability, and engineering concepts while also developing perseverance and teamwork skills. Your thoughtful donation has enriched our classroom in lasting ways, and we truly appreciate the role you've played in inspiring creativity, confidence, and a love of STEM learning in our students.","fullyFundedDate":1757902208718,"projectUrl":"project/building-bright-minds-with-strawbees-and/9510796/","projectTitle":"Building Bright Minds with Strawbees and STEM!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Iglesias","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10098703"},{"teacherId":9905989,"projectId":9444132,"letterContent":"The newly donated classroom resources made an immediate and joyful impact on my students.
