The impact of your contribution on my students' learning has been profound and truly transformative.\r\n\r\nThese materials have created engaging and hands-on opportunities for my students, enhancing their learning experience in both math and English Language Arts (ELA). The Legos have fostered creativity and critical thinking while helping students understand math concepts through building and problem-solving activities. Additionally, the letter building blocks have supported their literacy skills, allowing them to explore letter recognition, spelling, and word formation in a fun and interactive way.\r\n\r\nI have witnessed firsthand the excitement and enthusiasm that these tools have inspired in my classroom. Students are more engaged, collaboration has increased, and their confidence in these subjects has noticeably grown. It is truly rewarding to see them learning and growing in such a stimulating environment.\r\n\r\nThank you once again for your support and belief in the importance of hands-on learning. Your generosity is making a significant difference in the lives of my students, and I am incredibly grateful to have partners like you in our educational journey.","fullyFundedDate":1726587190887,"projectUrl":"project/lego-bricks-foster-engaging-and-hands-on/8791141/","projectTitle":"LEGO Bricks Foster Engaging and Hands on Math Lessons","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Evenhus","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/erinevenhus"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_39706","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":398,"numTeachers":23,"percentFrplEligible":47,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":81,"percentIndigenous":2,"percentLatinx":5,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"17.3:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":50.0,"schoolId":39706,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Sacajawea Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Sacajawea Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/montana/great-falls-school-district-1a/sacajawea-elementary-school/39706"}
