They were delighted when they saw the resources arrived and couldn't believe that it's for the classroom. They got so excited when I opened the box and there were so many plant models that they can create one by one.\r\nFor students with special needs, having visuals and models are two of the best ways to learn. Through the support of various donors and the Donors Choose Community, students absorbed learning with enthusiasm and joy. As seen in the photos, we have our first successful plant in the garden which is lemongrass, and another photo of a model lego jade plant and a real jade plant side by side to compare the real and the model. \r\nStudents drew succulents of aloe vera and echeveria. Another student creating a poster of the different types of plants from the Tiny Plants legos. Finally, a photo of drawings of the life cycle of a bean plant. Students were able to familiarize themselves with the different plants on how they live and thrive. All of these would not be possible with donors like you, so we again thank you for your help and donation.","fullyFundedDate":1755721897730,"projectUrl":"project/inspire-planting-that-lead-to-careers-in/9583959/","projectTitle":"Inspire Planting That Lead to Careers in Gardening and Horticulture","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Dy","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7619331_orig.jpg?crop=723,723,x72,y205&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1745537978012","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7619331"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_7485","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":358,"numTeachers":21,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":1,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":93,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"17.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":82.9,"schoolId":7485,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Utah Street Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Utah Street Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/los-angeles-unified-school-district/utah-street-elementary-school/7485"}
