By actively working on projects, they also improved their technical skills as they transformed materials into functional creations. In the process, they learned to take responsibility for their tools and components—making sure not to lose any screws or important parts needed for building. Through these experiences, they discovered hidden passions and talents they didn't know they had. Ultimately, this inspired many of them to consider future careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).","fullyFundedDate":1755795663884,"projectUrl":"project/hydration-innovation-fueling-focus-an/9631014/","projectTitle":"Hydration & Innovation: Fueling Focus and Future Scientists","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. JANICE","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9161096_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1704807494379","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9161096"},{"teacherId":9158015,"projectId":9056428,"letterContent":"We just wanted to say a heartfelt THANK YOU for helping us get our new social skills books and materials!
