This engaging technology has transformed the way our students approach problem-solving, sequencing, and collaboration. Through hands-on coding activities, they are learning essential computational thinking skills while also strengthening their ability to work as a team. Watching their excitement as they program the mouse to navigate mazes and solve challenges has been truly inspiring. \r\n\r\nOne of the most exciting aspects of this tool is how it makes abstract coding concepts accessible to young learners. Our students, many of whom had never been exposed to programming before, confidently give step-by-step commands, debug their sequences, and celebrate their successes. One student, who was initially hesitant to participate, has become a classroom leader in guiding peers through coding challenges. This technology not only fosters a love for STEM but also boosts the confidence and perseverance of our students. \r\n\r\nThank you for making this opportunity possible. Your generosity is helping shape the next generation of problem-solvers and critical thinkers!","fullyFundedDate":1731536732299,"projectUrl":"project/engineers-in-the-making/8633661/","projectTitle":"Engineers in the Making","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Butler","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5919828_orig.jpg?crop=640,640,x0,y21&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1746127603190","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/lakia-butler"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_14261","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":252,"numTeachers":20,"percentFrplEligible":94,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":14,"percentWhite":67,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":10,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 2","studentTeacherRatio":"12.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":16.1,"schoolId":14261,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Allemands Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Allemands Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/louisiana/st-charles-parish-public-school-district/allemands-elementary-school/14261"}
