The students were so excited about the supplies — I could tell right away! Some of them instantly got a boost of confidence. One student said, \"I love science!\" while another smiled and said, \"I want to wear these all day!\" Their excitement and energy filled the room. Students will conduct experiments, analyze results, and share their findings through presentations and reflections. Thanks to these resources, my students now have the tools and confidence to think like real scientists — exploring, questioning, and discovering the world around them with excitement and pride.","fullyFundedDate":1750873349704,"projectUrl":"project/coats-on-curiosity-up/9394214/","projectTitle":"Coats On, Curiosity Up!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Lynch","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-3_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10049344"},{"teacherId":8229945,"projectId":6056804,"letterContent":"Wow!
