As they design towers, houses, vehicles, and imaginative creations, they are also developing important skills like problem-solving, collaboration, creativity, and fine motor development.\r\n\r\nYour support has made our building center an even more exciting place where students can explore STEM concepts through hands-on learning.

Because of you, my Pre-K students now have the tools they need to turn their creativity into lasting masterpieces.\r\n\r\nSince receiving these materials, my students have been creating artwork with so much excitement and pride. We are able to preserve their drawings, paintings, and projects, allowing children to revisit their work and see how their ideas grow over time. Being able to laminate and bind their creations has helped us make class books, durable displays, and special keepsakes that celebrate every child's effort.\r\n\r\nFor many of my students, hands-on art is an important way they communicate, explore, and learn. These materials have made a meaningful difference by showing students that their work is important and valued. They light up when they see their artwork protected and displayed, and it has boosted their confidence and motivation to create.\r\n\r\nYour support has also helped me prepare reusable learning materials, visual supports, and interactive books that will continue to benefit our classroom throughout the year. These tools are already being used daily and will support many future learning experiences.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in my students and investing in their creativity. Because of you, they are learning that their little ideas truly can become lasting masterpieces.","fullyFundedDate":1764684927325,"projectUrl":"project/from-little-ideas-to-lasting-masterpiece/9840534/","projectTitle":"From Little Ideas to Lasting Masterpieces!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Frander","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp1903582_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1760671361455","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrs-frander"},{"teacherId":1903582,"projectId":9696117,"letterContent":"Your support will have a lasting impact on my young learners. By funding this project, you are giving four-year-olds the chance to see themselves as builders, problem-solvers, and innovators. These STEM materials will create daily opportunities for my students to experiment, collaborate, and explore their ideas in meaningful ways.\r\n\r\nThe Magna-Tiles, Legos, magnetic blocks, and fort-building kit will do more than provide play—they will inspire persistence, creativity, and teamwork. When a tower falls, my students will learn resilience. When they design a new structure together, they will practice cooperation and communication. When their imagination takes flight, they will begin to see the world through the eyes of an engineer or scientist.\r\n\r\nFor some of my students, these experiences are especially important. Learners with communication or motor challenges will be able to fully participate through hands-on exploration. Every child, regardless of ability, will have a way to contribute and shine.\r\n\r\nThe skills they build—critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaboration—are foundations for success not only in school, but in life. With your help, our classroom will become a place where curiosity grows into confidence, and little hands build big dreams.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in the potential of every child and for helping us create a Curiosity Corner where exploration and imagination can thrive.","fullyFundedDate":1758723679334,"projectUrl":"project/curiosity-corner-stem-for-little-learne/9696117/","projectTitle":"Curiosity Corner: STEM for Little Learners","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Frander","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp1903582_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1760671361455","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrs-frander"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_50253","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":688,"numTeachers":40,"percentFrplEligible":20,"percentAsian":2,"percentBlack":31,"percentWhite":38,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":16,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":10,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"17.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"UNCLASSIFIED","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":87.5,"schoolId":50253,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Mathews Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Mathews Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/georgia/muscogee-county-school-district/mathews-elementary-school/50253"}
