One of our favorite moments so far was during a recent hands-on project where students worked to apply what they were learning. The materials made it easier for them to stay engaged, and really take ownership of their work. Students created posters to advertise a festival in Spain they learned about. My other students created acrostic poems, describing what they wanted to be in the future. Both projects required them to see the markers to decorate. \r\n\r\nWhen the materials first arrived, their reactions were priceless. They were immediately curious and eager to explore everything. There were lots of smiles, questions, and comments like \"When do we get to use this?\" and \"This is so cool!\" That excitement carried right into our lessons, and it has made a noticeable difference in their motivation and participation.\r\n\r\nNext, we'll be building on this momentum by using the resources for our upcoming lesson sequence, where students will dive deeper into the concepts through more advanced activities and creative projects. They'll be applying what they've learned to real-world scenarios, reflecting on their progress, and sharing their work with classmates. Thanks to your generosity, they now have tools that make learning more interactive, meaningful, and fun, and we can't wait to see how they continue to grow. Students are excited to use the seat cushions during our next DEAR day and they will be using the white boards to help review for their next quiz.","fullyFundedDate":1764867052998,"projectUrl":"project/the-creative-classroom-collection/9770983/","projectTitle":"The Creative Classroom Collection","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Rego","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-3_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/rego"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_23598","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":759,"numTeachers":77,"percentFrplEligible":47,"percentAsian":2,"percentBlack":4,"percentWhite":49,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":40,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"9.9:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":90.9,"schoolId":23598,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Fox Lane Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Fox Lane Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-york/bedford-central-school-district/fox-lane-middle-school/23598"}
