They eagerly look forward to using the alphabet stamps during Play-Doh time, and the dot stickers spark creative ideas as we prepare for letter-writing in our books. The glitter crayons and skin-tone crayons have encouraged students to notice and add more thoughtful details to their coloring, while the dot markers help them stay engaged in focused, detail-oriented art activities.\r\n Thanks to your support, I am now able to offer a wider range of meaningful fine motor experiences that truly motivate and challenge our students.

We were absolutely thrilled and deeply grateful to have our project funded, especially as we continue building and enriching our Transitional Kindergarten (TK) environment. Creating a space where young children feel excited, motivated, and eager to attend school is at the heart of what we do—and this generous donation plays a vital role in making that vision a reality. It has truly energized our efforts, allowing us to provide hands-on, engaging, and developmentally appropriate experiences that spark curiosity and support early learning. Receiving this support not only uplifted our spirits but also empowered us to offer a wide range of meaningful opportunities for our students. Thank you for helping us create a joyful, enriched program where every child can thrive from the very start of their educational journey.\r\n The Calm Down Threading Boards have been a wonderful tool, helping students refocus their energy in a calming and productive way. The Magnetic Bingo Wand is a favorite, with children using it with wide-eyed excitement, convinced it's magical! Our Busy Boards with LED Lights have been such a hit that they're now a part of our daily routine, providing valuable cognitive skill development. The Alphabet Robot Action Figures make learning letters and sounds feel like playtime, and the students love pretending they're just playing with robots. We're thrilled to see their creativity flourish as they use the sample pictures to recreate structures with the Magnetic Blocks—it's an activity they truly enjoy. The Engineer-A-Coaster Activity Kit has sparked curiosity and deeper thinking, with students actively exploring incline mechanics on the magnetic board. Finally, the Magnetic Tiles Road Expansion Set brings a whole new level of excitement, as it transforms their building play into a lively, imaginative world with roads, cars, and people. We are so grateful for these engaging, hands-on learning materials that support both fun and growth in our classroom!","fullyFundedDate":1759357637676,"projectUrl":"project/children-are-learning-through-curiosity-/9769397/","projectTitle":"Children Are Learning Through Curiosity- Thanks to You!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Sackl","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp475244_orig.jpg?crop=2244,2245,x0,y336&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1759053701444","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/475244"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_4263","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":612,"numTeachers":26,"percentFrplEligible":8,"percentAsian":58,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":22,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":8,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"23.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":81.8,"schoolId":4263,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Montevideo Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Montevideo Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/california/san-ramon-valley-unified-school-district/montevideo-elementary-school/4263"}
