Because of you, my students have been able to explore and learn with brand new STEM toys, and they absolutely love them!\r\n\r\nWe have been using the toys during our play and learning time to build, create, and discover how things work. I especially love getting out these toys during our indoor recess time. They love getting to work together and try new stations every time I get them out. It was wonderful to see them working together and learning through play.\r\n\r\nWhen the materials first arrived, the room filled with excitement. Students' eyes lit up, and they couldn't wait to start exploring, especially with the stepping stones! There were lots of smiles, questions, and happy voices as they discovered all the different ways they could use the toys. \r\n\r\nNext, we will keep using these STEM toys to help us learn about building, problem-solving, and sharing ideas. Students will try new challenges, work with partners, and practice explaining what they made and how it works.\r\n\r\nThank you again for supporting our classroom and helping make learning so fun and meaningful for my students!","fullyFundedDate":1769177290941,"projectUrl":"project/spark-student-success-with-stem/9950259/","projectTitle":"Spark Student Success with STEM","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Broderson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9664563_orig.jpg?crop=1242,1242,x0,y57&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1740018652943","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mrsbrodersonsbunch"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_51789","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":236,"numTeachers":26,"percentFrplEligible":91,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":4,"percentWhite":44,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":46,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":4,"gradesServed":"K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"9.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":54.2,"schoolId":51789,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Franklin Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Franklin Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/iowa/muscatine-community-school-district/franklin-elementary-school/51789"}
