Every day, our students get to use colorful, laminated materials that really make learning fun and accessible for them.\r\n\r\nHaving these resources ready to go makes a huge difference. They're durable and easy to handle, which allows the kids to engage with the lessons in a hands-on way. Whether they're working alone or in groups, these materials help boost their creativity and teamwork.\r\n\r\nI also want to highlight how much the students love seeing photographs around the classroom. Those visuals help them connect with what we're learning. For example, when we study a topic, having real images to look at sparks their interest and leads to great discussions. It's amazing to watch their faces light up when they see something that relates to their own experiences.\r\n\r\nOnce again, thank you so much for being a part of this journey.

Our students embraced the engineering design process with zeal and dedication, tirelessly working to bring their innovative designs to life. They honed their teamwork skills, took on the roles of project managers, and reached out to our local communities to gather additional support.\r\n\r\nIn Spring 2023, I embarked on a new journey at a different school, seizing an incredible opportunity. Regrettably, after my departure from Lockhart MS, the new instructor chose not to continue the project we had initiated together. We were on the verge of completing all but one vehicle, but the new coordinator felt uncertain about moving forward with the remaining cars. \r\n\r\nAttached, you will find photos that vividly capture the hard work and creativity of our students, as well as the materials made possible through your generous contributions.\r\n\r\nOnce again, thank you for your unwavering support and belief in our students' potential!","fullyFundedDate":1671467082948,"projectUrl":"project/electra-cars/6850261/","projectTitle":"Electra Cars","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Campbell","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-8_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8712475"},{"teacherId":9894818,"projectId":9061541,"letterContent":"I am thrilled to share with you the incredible impact your generosity has had on my students! Thanks to your support, we have been able to integrate the new materials into our classroom, and the results have been astounding.\r\n\r\n*Classroom Project:*\r\n\r\nOne of the most exciting projects we've worked on is a digital storytelling unit, where students created interactive stories, poems, and presentations using the tablets. They were able to express themselves creatively, develop their writing and communication skills, and share their work with the class.\r\n\r\n*Student Reaction:*\r\n\r\nWhen the students first saw the tablets, their faces lit up with excitement! They were eager to explore the devices and start creating. One student exclaimed, \"This is just like having a mini-computer!\" Another student said, \"I love that we can use these to make our own stories and share them with everyone!\"\r\n\r\n*Impact:*\r\n\r\nThe tablets have opened up new avenues for learning, creativity, and collaboration. Students are now more engaged, motivated, and confident in their abilities. The devices have also enabled us to incorporate more project-based learning, critical thinking, and problem-solving activities into our curriculum.\r\n\r\n*Next Steps:*\r\n\r\nWe are currently working on a multimedia presentation project, where students will research and create interactive presentations on various topics, such as science, history, and culture. The tablets will be instrumental in this project, allowing students to access a wealth of digital resources, create engaging multimedia content, and share their work with the class.\r\n\r\nThank you again for your kindness and support! Your contribution has made a tangible difference in the lives of my students, and we are forever grateful.","fullyFundedDate":1737492331432,"projectUrl":"project/helping-hands-supplying-our-students-s/9061541/","projectTitle":"Helping Hands: Supplying Our Students' Success","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Ira Faith Marie Cabanlit","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9894818_orig.jpg?crop=1706,1706,x0,y7&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1736904572111","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/ms-cabanlit"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_46701","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":660,"numTeachers":53,"percentFrplEligible":83,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":64,"percentWhite":9,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":22,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"12.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":69.8,"schoolId":46701,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Lockhart Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Lockhart Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/florida/orange-county-public-schools/lockhart-middle-school/46701"}
