Students were asking questions some students even shared their own experiences with kits they have used. You could feel the energy shift as they began imagining what they might build, sharing ideas with classmates, and talking through possibilities. For many, it was the first time they had seen LEGO kits designed for learning, and the idea that these weren't just for building, but for creating something that works, made the experience even more thrilling.\r\n\r\nOnce they learned the LEGO kits would be used in small groups to design computer-controlled creations, the excitement grew even more. Students immediately began talking about signing up, planning who they might work with, and brainstorming how they could use the kits as an early finisher activity. Knowing this opportunity is coming has already become a powerful motivator; students are eager to complete their work so they can earn time to build, code, and problem-solve. The anticipation is high, and it's clear these LEGO kits will inspire creativity, collaboration, and a strong sense of purpose in the classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1758303698546,"projectUrl":"project/lego-create-something-awesome/9705750/","projectTitle":"LEGO Create Something Awesome!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Blinke","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp434781_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1701917511852","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/434781"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_64486","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":546,"numTeachers":29,"percentFrplEligible":40,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":27,"percentWhite":49,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":13,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":7,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"18.8:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":60.0,"schoolId":64486,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Thomas Johnson Elementary School 84 on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Thomas Johnson Elementary School 84","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/maryland/baltimore-city-public-school-district/thomas-johnson-elementary-school-84/64486"}
