These materials are supporting hands-on learning experiences that strengthen problem-solving, teamwork, and perseverance—skills that are essential for success in both the classroom and home. Students are using the supplies during structured lessons and small-group projects that mirror real-world tasks and encourage critical thinking.\r\n\r\nWhen students first saw the STEM materials, they were excited and eager to begin exploring how everything worked. Many students immediately started collaborating, asking questions, and experimenting with the supplies. It was rewarding to see students take ownership of their learning, problem-solve through challenges, and celebrate their successes as they completed projects together.","fullyFundedDate":1700344525097,"projectUrl":"project/bringing-stem-into-the-classroom/7998749/","projectTitle":"Bringing STEM into the Classroom","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Velarde","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9352080"},{"teacherId":8116646,"projectId":9935481,"letterContent":"Thanks to the recent donation of supplies for our classroom, our students have been able to engage in daily learning activities. \r\n\r\nDuring our math lessons, students are asked to share their answers by writing mathematical computations on whiteboards.

During the dissection, we observed and identified major parts of the brain, including the cerebrum, cerebellum, brainstem, and corpus callosum.\r\n\r\nThe dissection allowed us to see how the different regions of the brain are connected and how each part contributes to movement, coordination, and processing information. It was fascinating to notice how small and intricate the structures were compared to the diagrams we studied on paper.\r\n\r\nMany students found the experience both educational and memorable. It helped make the abstract concepts of brain function more concrete and encouraged curiosity about neuroscience and anatomy. Although some students were initially nervous, most expressed appreciation afterward for the opportunity to explore real biological structures.\r\n\r\nOverall, the sheep brain dissection deepened our understanding of how the brain works and why it is one of the most complex and vital organs in living organisms.","fullyFundedDate":1758289704867,"projectUrl":"project/learning-how-to-dissect-sheeps-brains/9692744/","projectTitle":"Learning How to Dissect Sheeps Brains!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Lunt","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5354109_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1698777187093","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/5354109"},{"teacherId":8122670,"projectId":7989532,"letterContent":"I would like to express our deepest gratitude for your generous donation towards our classroom materials.
