The children especially enjoy building a 'dinosaur zoo' with the various dinosaur toys that were donated, and other classroom items such as wooden blocks and/or magnetic block shapes. The children were so excited when I unboxed the dinosaurs and have used them ever since. They are very curious to learn more about real dinosaurs, now that they've had experience playing with dinosaur toys. \r\n\r\nMy students have also been using the snap cubes that were donated. The day I unboxed the snap cubes, I had the entire class volunteer to take the cubes apart and help me place them into plastic boxes that we use during math time. I have had the class use the snap cubes for counting, sorting, creating patterns and so many other things during math time. \r\n\r\nThe next steps for using the donated resources is to teach/learn the science behind how read dinosaurs lived, and to continue using the snap cubes for various math activities.","fullyFundedDate":1753513407546,"projectUrl":"project/math-and-science-exploration/9426480/","projectTitle":"Math and Science Exploration","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. LaRock","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8364276_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1704754727540","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8364276"},{"teacherId":8364276,"projectId":9061682,"letterContent":"My students have been using the headphones since the day they arrived.

I have 10 student chrome books and 20 students that use daily. \r\nAs for the letter and number stamps, the students have been able to use the stamps for letter to sound matching, and making simple CVC words. \r\nThe class has also been using the number stamps for number matching activities and counting activities. They enjoy making one, two and three digit numbers to practice number identification. \r\nStudents enjoy using the letter and number stamps to enhance their learning.","fullyFundedDate":1739373214958,"projectUrl":"project/technology-and-hands-on-approaches-to-le/9061682/","projectTitle":"Technology and Hands on Approaches to Learning!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. LaRock","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8364276_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1704754727540","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8364276"},{"teacherId":8364276,"projectId":8060319,"letterContent":"My students and I have successfully been using the new resources that were donated to my classroom.
