Our students are now engaging with hands-on materials that make U.S. history and geography come alive. With the new resources, including maps of the U.S. and the world, flags of all countries, and a timeline of U.S. presidents, students are able to visually explore history and connect events to real-world locations. Recently, we held a classroom activity where students matched historical events to their locations on the U.S. map, and their excitement was truly contagious; they were pointing out states, identifying presidents, and even discovering patterns in history themselves.\r\n\r\nThe students' reactions when they first saw the materials were priceless. Many of them couldn't stop talking about the flags and the presidential portraits, and some even started asking questions about different countries and historical periods. It was a joy to see them so curious and motivated to learn. These resources have sparked conversations, encouraged teamwork, and made lessons more interactive and meaningful.\r\n\r\nLooking ahead, we are planning a series of projects where students will research specific presidents, create presentations about historical events, and use the maps and flags to connect global events to U.S. history. Your support has not only provided us with materials but has also inspired students to explore history with enthusiasm and creativity. Thank you for giving them this opportunity to learn, grow, and see the world in a whole new way.","fullyFundedDate":1758801098266,"projectUrl":"project/classroom-decors/9678237/","projectTitle":"Classroom Decors","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Chalsey May Plarisan","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9452327_orig.jpg?crop=1475,1475,x35,y201&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1706724207012","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9452327"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_79964","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":99,"numTeachers":7,"percentFrplEligible":64,"percentAsian":2,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":82,"percentIndigenous":5,"percentLatinx":10,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"14.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_REMOTE"},"inStateSupporters":40.7,"schoolId":79964,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Fairmount Public School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Fairmount Public School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/north-dakota/fairmount-school-district-18/fairmount-public-school/79964"}
