As students design and paint set pieces for Disney's Finding Nemo KIDS., they will practice artistic techniques and apply problem-solving skills in a real-world, collaborative setting. The use of these materials helps create an immersive learning experience that brings classroom concepts to life.\r\n\r\nThis project encourages teamwork, communication, and creative thinking. Students will collaborate to transform simple materials like pool noodles and paint into coral reefs, seaweed, and ocean scenery, learning to think like storytellers and designers. Working together to create a shared vision fosters a sense of responsibility, perseverance, and pride in their contributions to the production.\r\n\r\nMost importantly, this project gives students ownership of their work and a voice in the creative process. By contributing their ideas and talents, students from diverse backgrounds feel valued and empowered to express themselves in meaningful ways. Your support helps students build confidence, discover new talents, and develop a deeper connection to the arts—creating a memorable experience that extends far beyond the stage.","fullyFundedDate":1758835497818,"projectUrl":"project/colors-coral-and-curtain-calls/9633680/","projectTitle":"Colors, Coral, and Curtain Calls","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Beecher","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8117140_orig.jpg?crop=320,320,x0,y40&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1768107619973","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8117140"},{"teacherId":9357502,"projectId":9885694,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for the books.

Many of our families are unable to provide headphones for their children, so every single pair has been distributed and is being used daily with our student Chromebooks and iPads.\r\n\r\nIn today's learning environment, sound is essential. Many of the online programs we use rely on audio to deliver instructions, read questions aloud, or guide students through interactive lessons. These headphones will enable every student to fully engage with these lessons and activities, ultimately advancing their learning capabilities.\r\n\r\nBeyond that, headphones help create a focused learning space. They allow students to tune out distractions and immerse themselves in the task at hand. With higher student-to-classroom ratios growing, students will have to adapt to a noisier and constricted space while learning. We are so excited that this donation is already supporting both concentration and comprehension. It's amazing how even one pair of headphones can transform a child's learning environment. \r\n\r\nWith your support, we now have 200 students with the tools they need to focus, engage, and succeed every day.","fullyFundedDate":1742494860537,"projectUrl":"project/hear-to-succeed-providing-headphones-fo/9146150/","projectTitle":"Hear to Succeed: Providing Headphones for Students","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Megan","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9355010_orig.jpg?crop=320,320,x0,y30&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1741278238471","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/connerstechnology"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_75243","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":548,"numTeachers":42,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":16,"percentWhite":28,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":41,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"13.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":63.3,"schoolId":75243,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Eileen Conners Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Eileen Conners Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/nevada/clark-county-school-district/eileen-conners-elementary-school/75243"}
