Your generosity has helped me update my classroom and create a more welcoming, functional, and engaging learning environment for my students.\r\n\r\nWhen my students first saw the new materials, they were so excited! They immediately noticed the changes and enjoyed seeing how much more updated and inviting the classroom looked. It was wonderful to hear their comments and see their reactions. Creating an environment where students feel comfortable and excited to learn is extremely important to me, and these materials have helped me accomplish that goal.\r\n\r\nWe are already putting the new resources to use in our Geoscience classroom. One of the biggest improvements is that I am now able to heat materials and keep other materials cold in a safe and functional way for our science activities and experiments. This makes it much easier to prepare and conduct hands-on investigations in the classroom without having to find alternative ways to heat or store materials. Having these resources readily available also allows our experiments to run more smoothly and gives students more opportunities to participate in meaningful, hands-on science.\r\n\r\nThe other materials are helping transform what was once a dated space into an environment that is more functional, organized, and inviting. One of my favorite moments was simply watching the students explore the updated classroom and realize that this was a space created specifically for them. Their excitement reminded me how much the classroom environment can influence students' attitudes toward learning.\r\n\r\nAs we move forward, my students will use these resources during our upcoming Geoscience lessons and projects. We will complete hands-on investigations and collaborative activities that allow students to explore Earth and space science concepts rather than simply reading about them. Students will work together, ask questions, conduct experiments, investigate problems, and use their observations to explain real-world phenomena.\r\n\r\nI am incredibly grateful for your contribution to our classroom. Your support has done much more than provide us with new materials. You have helped me create a classroom where students can walk in each day and feel excited, valued, and ready to learn. I cannot wait to put all of these resources to use and see everything my students accomplish this year!\r\n\r\nThank you again for investing in my students and helping take our classroom from \"Dated to Dynamic!\"","fullyFundedDate":1781278863373,"projectUrl":"project/from-dated-to-dynamic-transforming-our/10278363/","projectTitle":"From Dated to Dynamic: Transforming Our Classroom","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Mankins","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-8_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/5725214"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_91188","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":568,"numTeachers":43,"percentFrplEligible":83,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":5,"percentWhite":74,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":7,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":12,"gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"13.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":65.8,"schoolId":91188,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Greensburg Salem Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Greensburg Salem Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/pennsylvania/greensburg-salem-school-district/greensburg-salem-middle-school/91188"}
