Though it is early in the year, we were able to complete one challenge with a small group of students (pictures included). We were able to build and model the Sun-Earth-Moon system with the LEGO education kit. It was fun, creative and helped reinforce the concept through a hands-on learning opportunity.\r\n\r\nMy students were so curious about the kit when it first arrived. I know they all are excited to use this over time. With the small group of students, they were able to build, create and analyze the project; then they presented to model to the class. This was incredibly effective and so fun to incorporate into class.\r\n\r\nI am excited to use the kit with more students as the year progresses. I am also hopeful to try to acquire more LEGO Education Kits so that more students can access and participate in building and creating content connections with the LEGO Kit. \r\n\r\nI hope you know how incredibly thankful and appreciative we are! Your kindness moved mountains, and thank you is simply not enough.","fullyFundedDate":1785175299877,"projectUrl":"project/lego-learn-about-science/10332657/","projectTitle":"LEGO Learn about Science","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Caldwell","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9202548_orig.png?crop=1275,1275,x4,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1692324845357","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/kcaldwell6"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_61917","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":521,"numTeachers":48,"percentFrplEligible":61,"percentAsian":7,"percentBlack":8,"percentWhite":62,"percentIndigenous":1,"percentLatinx":17,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":3,"gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"10.9:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":55.6,"schoolId":61917,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Kennedy Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Kennedy Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/massachusetts/woburn-public-school-district/john-f-kennedy-middle-school/61917"}
