The science activity items you helped provide allowed students to explore, observe, and experiment in meaningful ways that are developmentally appropriate. Through these activities, children asked questions, made predictions, and discovered how the world around them works, building a strong foundation for scientific thinking at an early age.\r\nThese materials supported important skills such as problem-solving, critical thinking, and language development as students described what they noticed and shared their ideas with peers. Working together during science activities also encouraged collaboration, patience, and perseverance as students tested ideas and learned from trial and error. Your donation helped turn our classroom into a place where curiosity is celebrated and learning feels exciting and empowering.\r\nThe impact of your support goes beyond individual lessons. By providing engaging science experiences in our transitional kindergarten classroom, you helped nurture a love of discovery and confidence in learning that will stay with our students as they continue their educational journey.","fullyFundedDate":1715979785115,"projectUrl":"project/exploring-science-in-tk/8325956/","projectTitle":"Exploring Science in TK","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Alvarado","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8496933_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1678740394749","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8496933"},{"teacherId":8496933,"projectId":6511589,"letterContent":"Because of your generous donation, our transitional kindergarten classroom was transformed into a rich, engaging space for pretend play and learning.

The hands-on, age-appropriate nature of stickers allows my students to participate actively while developing confidence and independence.
