We're using the STEM kits during hands-on engineering stations so students can design, test, and iterate real prototypes; younger learners build simple structures while older students tackle multi-step challenges that reinforce measurement, teamwork, and problem-solving. A standout moment came during a grade‑4 challenge: a team redesigned their tower three times after testing collapses, and their excitement when the final build held steady was contagious — they cheered, sketched improvements in their journals, and explained their fixes to the class.\r\n\r\n The Wipex wipes have kept our shared workspaces clean and ready for the next activity, and the prize-box toys are already motivating students during quick formative checks and encouraging positive classroom habits. Next, we'll expand the STEM work into a cross-curricular project: students will use the kits to design a community structure, write a short proposal explaining their choices, and present prototypes to classmates; we'll use the reward items to celebrate persistence and thoughtful revisions. Thank you again — your support is powering meaningful learning, joyful problem-solving, and real student growth.","fullyFundedDate":1755984762203,"projectUrl":"project/brick-by-brickstem-challenges-to-build/9276231/","projectTitle":"Brick by Brick:Stem Challenges to Build Young Engineers!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Diggs","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp2803589_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1472821032552","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2803589"},{"teacherId":5650519,"projectId":8995985,"letterContent":"I would like to sincerely thank you for your generous donations to my project.
