The students were so excited to see the new hands-on science kits.\r\n Our unit was on electrical systems and involved some hands-on problem solving, but since kids learn by doing, not just reading, I wanted them to have more chances to tinker with electrical systems. We had a couple of kits, but needed more in order for students to work in small groups. \r\n The kits were a hit! Students were so excited when they were able to solve an engineering problem. Learning through tinkering and play helps develop the engineers of tomorrow!","fullyFundedDate":1733198697932,"projectUrl":"project/snap-circuits-for-hands-on-circuits/8978120/","projectTitle":"Snap Circuits For Hands-On Circuits","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Erickson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-8_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9479414"},{"teacherId":2470962,"projectId":8498437,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your kind donation to our classroom. We have had a wonderful start to the year thanks to the materials you helped purchase.\r\n\r\nStudents have been using the play doh letters and stamp pads in their literacy centers.

They are all enjoying literacy and meeting their letter sound goals!\r\n\r\nWe have been using the beads for math counting, addition and subtraction as well as to make friendship bracelets. Students use the stacking blocks to build imaginary worlds during choice time and we used the cotton balls today to make winter wonderland art.\r\n\r\nThanks again from myself and all of the students in room 4!","fullyFundedDate":1724977823537,"projectUrl":"project/bring-the-joy-of-art-and-literacy-to-our/8498437/","projectTitle":"Bring the Joy of Art and Literacy to Our Classroom","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Boehm","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2470962_orig.jpg?crop=1975,1975,x1249,y40&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1594683830452","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2470962"},{"teacherId":1507697,"projectId":8866888,"letterContent":"We wanted to take a few moments to reach out and thank you.
