The LEGO NASA Artemis rocket will allow students to explore engineering, space science, problem-solving, and the design process while building and testing a model inspired by NASA's real-world missions. The human anatomy model will give students a tangible way to explore the body's systems, organs, bones, and muscles.\r\n\r\nThe included books and science reference guides will provide students with accessible resources for exploring astronomy, biology, chemistry, and Earth science beyond the textbook. Together, these materials will support curiosity, critical thinking, collaboration, and STEM vocabulary while helping students connect classroom concepts to real-world careers and scientific discoveries.\r\n\r\nMost importantly, these resources will give students opportunities to learn through hands-on investigation and discovery. Students will be able to ask questions, make observations, solve problems, and apply what they learn across multiple areas of science. These experiences can help build confidence and encourage students to see themselves as capable scientists, engineers, and problem-solvers.","fullyFundedDate":1785673620021,"projectUrl":"project/launching-curiosity-through-hands-on-sci/10319732/","projectTitle":"Launching Curiosity Through Hands-On Science and STEM Activities","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Rogers","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp2645747_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1487100967617","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2645747"},{"teacherId":2645747,"projectId":10296502,"letterContent":"The gift card to Teachers Pay Teachers is helping me find amazing resources for my students.

From fantasy adventures like The Chronicles of Narnia, The Hobbit, and The Lord of the Rings to literary classics such as To Kill a Mockingbird, The Iliad and the Odyssey, and the works of Edgar Allan Poe, these books have expanded the choices available to every reader.\r\nIn our classroom, reading is about more than finishing a book. Students explore themes, analyze characters, build vocabulary, make connections across texts, and discuss how stories reflect different cultures, time periods, and perspectives. These new titles allow students to grow as thoughtful readers while discovering genres and authors they may never have experienced otherwise.\r\n\r\nOne of the most rewarding outcomes has been seeing students gravitate toward books that match their individual interests. Some have eagerly picked up epic fantasy, while others have been drawn to mysteries, historical fiction, poetry, or science fiction. Having a wider variety of high-quality literature has encouraged reluctant readers to try something new and given avid readers exciting challenges.\r\n\r\nThank you for helping us build a classroom library that fosters curiosity, imagination, and a lifelong love of reading. Your generosity is making a lasting difference in our students' literacy journey.","fullyFundedDate":1779108943717,"projectUrl":"project/books-books-books/10294758/","projectTitle":"Books, Books, Books!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Rogers","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp2645747_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1487100967617","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/2645747"},{"teacherId":2645747,"projectId":8066830,"letterContent":"The funded project provided Legos for students to build models of ancient world civilizations, such as the Colosseum, the pyramids, and other historic structures.
