Your contributions have made a significant impact on how my students engage with their learning. With the binders and pencil cases you provided, our students are not only more organized but also more mindful of the work they create. These tools have given them a way to collect and value their discoveries responsibly, fostering a sense of pride and ownership in their progress.\r\n\r\nThe binders serve as a personal archive of their journey through science, holding their observations, claims, evidence, and models as they explore each unit. They will carry these binders through middle school, building on their knowledge and skills with each passing year. The pencil cases have encouraged responsibility and reduced waste, helping students take better care of the tools essential for their learning.\r\n\r\nIn our classroom, we are honored to work with the new OpenSciEd curriculum, which allows students to explore science in innovative ways. Recently, we've added computer science components to our curriculum, enabling students to design and program micro:bits to measure and interpret data using advanced tools and sensors. Your support has provided a foundation for these efforts, ensuring students have the organizational tools they need to focus on these exciting challenges.\r\n\r\nOn behalf of my students and myself, thank you for believing in our mission to shape tomorrow's scientists. Your generosity inspires us every day and reminds us that there is a community of people who value education and the potential of young minds.\r\n\r\nWith heartfelt gratitude,","fullyFundedDate":1726615887978,"projectUrl":"project/science-collection-of-discovery/8580957/","projectTitle":"Science Collection of Discovery!","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Hodel","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-10_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9222858"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_32258","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":354,"numTeachers":42,"percentFrplEligible":64,"percentAsian":2,"percentBlack":3,"percentWhite":14,"percentIndigenous":1,"percentLatinx":73,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"8.4:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":64.7,"schoolId":32258,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Denver Center for International Studies on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Denver Center for International Studies","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/colorado/denver-public-school-district-1/denver-center-intl-study/32258"}
