These resources have truly transformed the way my students experience science in our classroom.\r\n\r\nWe are using the new materials daily during our science block and center time. One of our favorite moments so far has been our \"Life at the Pond\" exploration. Students used the magnifying glasses and picture viewers to closely examine leaves, water samples, and small classroom models of insects and plants. They were thrilled to discover tiny details they had never noticed before—one student even shouted, \"It looks like a whole new world!\" as she spotted patterns on a leaf's veins for the first time.\r\n\r\nWhen the students first saw the materials, their excitement filled the room. They eagerly put on the goggles, gathered around the exploration table, and couldn't wait to take turns using the STEM kits. Many of them asked if they could \"be scientists every day now,\" which was incredibly rewarding to hear.\r\n\r\nOur next steps are to use these tools for an engineering and design challenge where students will identify a problem in a habitat and design a solution using the STEM kits. They will draw their ideas, build models, test them, and improve their designs—just like real engineers and scientists.\r\n\r\nBecause of you, my students are not just learning about science—they are doing science. They even asked to use the science table during indoor recess instead of playing with toys. That is a huge win right there. Thank you for giving them the opportunity to explore, discover, and believe in their ability to think like scientists every day. When we unboxed the science table, they even turned to box that it came in, into a shadow station. They used the box, flashlights and animals to make shadow stories. Nothing was wasted. Everything was loved.","fullyFundedDate":1762532596340,"projectUrl":"project/focus-on-discovery-empowering-young-min/9771006/","projectTitle":"Focus on Discovery: Empowering Young Minds with STEM Vision","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Wycoff","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10291002_orig.jpg?crop=276,276,x12,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1765385132730","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10291002"},{"teacherId":10293504,"projectId":9771803,"letterContent":"Providing classroom snacks for students in need is one of the most beneficial ways to support their academic success. Students can only learn best when their immediate needs are first met, including hunger. Oftentimes, snacks are a luxury that many families struggle to provide. During the time when SNAP benefits were withheld and the holiday season was approaching, the snacks you donated to our classroom made an incredible impact on our students physical, emotional, and academic growth. \r\n\r\nOur fifth grade students have not only developed a deeper sense of security in the classroom knowing that they have snacks to help them get through their days, but have also learned a valuable life lesson about the importance of helping others in need. As a way of turning your donation into a learning opportunity, students have learned about the mission behind DonorsChoose and how our classroom snacks were generously donated by someone who cares about the needs of students. As the snack packages continued to roll in, students were astonished when they realized that a stranger spent their own money to donate a hefty supply of classroom snacks.\r\n\r\nTo pay this generous donation forward, students have been volunteering their time to help teachers and staff in our school community. As we have talked about the importance of helping others in ways we are capable of, they realized that they could offer their time to others. From cleaning the lunch tables to sweeping the cafeteria and picking up trash on school grounds, students have been giving their time and energy to positively impact their learning community. These life lessons, which were sparked by your generosity, are helping our fifth graders develop the skills they need to be responsible, respectful, and active citizens.\r\n\r\nThank you for generous donation and supporting the needs of our students!","fullyFundedDate":1760719678370,"projectUrl":"project/5th-grade-classroom-snacks/9771803/","projectTitle":"5th Grade Classroom Snacks","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Bernier","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-3_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10293504"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_44715","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":144,"numTeachers":24,"percentFrplEligible":43,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":90,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":4,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"6.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_REMOTE"},"inStateSupporters":61.3,"schoolId":44715,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Mountain View School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Mountain View School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/maine/rsu-24/mountain-view-school/44715"}
