Students loved using it to cut out 2D shapes and, once they got more practice, loved to build with it. Some personal favorite builds were a house, a robot, and an attempt at making a volcano. Students also used the saw to help them in creating art pieces for their art show, which was absolutely amazing to see what they could create!\r\nThe Lego bricks and building kits were also huge hits! The kids loved putting them together, and I loved seeing the kids work together and use their brains to create something new!\r\nI am excited to see what the incoming students will create with these items and also so excited to see what my returning students will have come up with over the summer.","fullyFundedDate":1772397906243,"projectUrl":"project/creating-community-through-steam-creatio/9981821/","projectTitle":"Creating Community through STEAM Creations","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Sanson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10396320"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_25503","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":282,"numTeachers":21,"percentFrplEligible":47,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":93,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":1,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":4,"gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"13.4:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":81.5,"schoolId":25503,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Carlinville Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Carlinville Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/illinois/carlinville-community-unit-school-district-1/carlinville-middle-school/25503"}
