Then students went outside to look for twigs, leaves and brush so that they could make a sculpture of a nest. The results were very creative and students also used the crepe paper to make birds for their nests. \r\n\r\nA key take away was that each nest was different and represented a diversity of birds, styles and individuality.","fullyFundedDate":1758838634565,"projectUrl":"project/showing-up-its-a-piece-of-cake/9405553/","projectTitle":"Showing Up, It's a Piece of Cake","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. DeLaO","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp385057_orig.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1741450774103","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/385057"},{"teacherId":385057,"projectId":9501374,"letterContent":"The Visual and Performing Arts students were utterly elated to see the new clocks.
