My students are using this great tool to develop understanding and acquire fluency in mathematics the way no book would allow them to do. They are getting automatic feedback when they respond to a problem and they are graphing using grids with accuracy. They are enjoying this state of the art tool to succeed in my Mathematics. They are using real time data which can't be used with a math book. Their success is observed daily. Once again my students and myself appreciate your contribution to their success.","fullyFundedDate":1758034142271,"projectUrl":"project/equity-in-math-success/9559755/","projectTitle":"Equity in Math Success","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Bertot","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-6_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2083471"},{"teacherId":2053568,"projectId":8601331,"letterContent":"I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for your incredible support of our Robotics Corner project. I am truly overwhelmed by the generosity of the DonorsChoose community and the way you help make projects like ours a reality for students and teachers. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.\r\nAt the beginning of the school year, we envisioned a dedicated space in our classroom where students could explore robotics, tinker with small assemblies, and bring their creative ideas to life. This vision became our Robotics Corner project, which we promptly posted on DonorsChoose. We were absolutely amazed by the outpouring of support and how quickly donations came in, making our project a tangible possibility. The prospect of having a Cricut machine for hands-on projects and HEXBUG miniature robotic creatures for all students in the Robotics Center was incredibly exciting. Thanks to you, that excitement became a reality in no time!\r\nAs soon as our materials arrived, we eagerly unpacked and began assembling everything. The Cricut immediately attracted a group of students eager to create handmade projects. They even started an online engineering notebook to document their work! The HEXBUGs sparked countless ideas among our curious and detail-oriented 6th graders. These mechanisms have become a true inspiration, fueling their imaginations and paving the way for the creation of larger machines, more complex robots, and even greater ideas.\r\nI am so thankful for a community that comes together to support our middle school students. These resources would not be possible without DonorsChoose and the generous donors who, even though they don't know us personally, choose to invest in our students' futures. Our kids are learning not only that they can create amazing things with their newfound materials and a little imagination, but also that there are many people who care about them and are willing to step up to help them succeed.\r\nThank you, donors. Thank you, DonorsChoose. Your generosity is making a real difference in the lives of our students.","fullyFundedDate":1731474088383,"projectUrl":"project/robotics-corner/8601331/","projectTitle":"Robotics Corner","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Mili Rengifo","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp2053568_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1472700046473","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/milirengifo"},{"teacherId":2204171,"projectId":8635787,"letterContent":"My class and I would like to extend a heartfelt \"thank you\" to those of you that made this project possible. My 6th graders are currently reading Esperanza Rising and enjoying this novel very much! The novel focuses on some specific themes, including the death of a loved one, the importance of family, and how life isn't always secure and predictable. These themes are discussed after reading each chapter. The students are also being exposed to new vocabulary words every time we read together. I am using the audio version of the novel to help my auditory learners focus while we all read together as a group.\r\n For many of my students, this is the first time that they are reading a novel from beginning to end. Most of them love the novel and absolutely hate it when we have to stop reading because they need to prepare for dismissal. One of my classes, in particular, makes comments while we are reading as if they were watching a soap opera. Their mouths are literally opened in disbelief! Thus far, reading Esperanza Rising has been a wonderful experience for my students. I am very grateful for your help and support. Thanks to your donations, my students are able to enjoy a beautiful novel and I am able to continue fostering a love for the written word.","fullyFundedDate":1723675557947,"projectUrl":"project/esperanza-rising-to-the-top-of-the-class/8635787/","projectTitle":"ESPERANZA RISING TO THE TOP OF THE CLASS","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Lee-Estevez","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp2204171_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1723508433301","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2204171"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_45846","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":888,"numTeachers":49,"percentFrplEligible":58,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":1,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":96,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"18.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":80.3,"schoolId":45846,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Rockway Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Rockway Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/florida/miami-dade-county-public-schools/rockway-middle-school/45846"}
