The new board games and science lab goggles have brought so much joy and energy to our classroom. Whenever students have free time, they eagerly gather around the games, creating moments of healthy competition, laughter, and collaboration. It has been wonderful to see them strategizing, problem-solving, and building stronger connections with one another. The games have also provided well-deserved brain breaks that keep students refreshed and engaged during our rigorous science lessons.\r\n\r\nIn addition to the games, the goggles have been an essential part of our hands-on science labs. From conducting chemistry experiments to exploring the properties of different substances, students have safely and enthusiastically participated in activities that bring scientific concepts to life. The excitement on their faces as they gear up for an experiment is truly priceless. We look forward to using the goggles for many more labs and experiments throughout the year.\r\n\r\nThanks to your generosity, our classroom has become an even more dynamic and interactive learning environment. Next, we plan to explore more complex experiments that will further deepen students' understanding of scientific principles. The board games will continue to offer students a positive outlet for relaxation and connection. Your support has made a lasting impact, and we are incredibly grateful for your kindness.","fullyFundedDate":1731162320419,"projectUrl":"project/thinking-more-positive-like-a-proton/8922493/","projectTitle":"Thinking More Positive Like a Proton","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Mead","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-6_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9827551"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_101003","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":772,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":50,"percentAsian":33,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":41,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":13,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"7 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":90.0,"schoolId":101003,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Western Sierra Collegiate Academy on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Western Sierra Collegiate Academy","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/california-department-of-education/western-sierra-collegiate-acad/101003"}
