Your contribution made an exciting, hands-on learning experience possible for all of my students.\r\n\r\nBecause of your donation, we were able to purchase filament for our 3D printers along with air-dry clay that allowed students to test their cookie cutter designs in a fun, low-mess, and highly engaging way. Students used Tinkercad to design their own cookie cutters, learning how to think like engineers as they considered structure, shape, and functionality. The filament you provided made it possible to print multiple prototypes so students could see firsthand how small adjustments in their digital models changed the way their cutters performed.\r\n\r\nThe air-dry clay brought everything to life. Students pressed their cutters into the clay, analyzed the clarity and quality of the impressions, and revised their designs to improve them. This hands-on testing was a powerful part of the learning process—turning abstract ideas into something tangible they could see, touch, and evaluate.\r\n\r\nYour support helped students build real design skills while also boosting their confidence and creativity. They were so proud to hold their final cookie cutters and to know they had created something from start to finish.\r\n\r\nThank you for investing in our classroom and for giving my students an authentic, joyful engineering experience they will remember.","fullyFundedDate":1764737992768,"projectUrl":"project/designing-delicious-ideas-3d-printed-co/9931244/","projectTitle":"Designing Delicious Ideas: 3D Printed Cookie Cutters for Creative Learners","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Cerasale-Messina","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp5975631_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1542508700208","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/katiecerasalemessina"},{"teacherId":5975631,"projectId":9902885,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for your generous support of our Dash Robot project! Your donation brought an exciting and meaningful learning opportunity into our computer lab, and my students could not have been more thrilled.\r\n\r\nThe arrival of Dash transformed our lessons. Students were immediately engaged as they explored coding through hands-on challenges, problem-solving activities, and team-based missions. They learned how to write and test code, debug their programs, and think creatively as they guided Dash through mazes, obstacle courses, and storytelling tasks. For many students, this was their first experience seeing their code come to life in a real, physical way—and it sparked curiosity and confidence that software alone can't replicate.\r\n\r\nYour support made it possible for all students to take turns programming and interacting with Dash, helping them build essential skills in logic, sequencing, and computational thinking.

Your donation made an immediate and meaningful impact on our students and the work they are able to produce in our videography and media classes.\r\n\r\nBecause of your support, students were able to properly transfer, organize, and review their footage using the new SD card readers—something that had previously slowed or limited their workflow. The frames you helped fund allowed students to proudly display their photographs and final projects, transforming our classroom and school hallways into a gallery of their creativity.\r\n\r\nThese materials didn't just make our work easier—they elevated the entire learning experience. Students practiced real-world media skills, gained confidence in their technical abilities, and experienced the excitement of seeing their finished pieces showcased in a professional way. Many students commented that seeing their work framed and displayed made them feel like true artists and filmmakers.\r\n\r\nYour generosity has opened the door for deeper engagement, smoother project execution, and authentic opportunities for students to share their voices.

Your generosity brought an exciting blend of creativity, engineering, and pure childhood joy into our classroom.\r\n\r\nBecause of your donations, my students were able to explore the full design process from concept to creation. We purchased filament that allowed each student to print multiple versions of their own bubble wand designs. Students studied the structure of traditional bubble wands, then used those examples as inspiration to create imaginative, functional prototypes of their own. With each print, they were able to evaluate what worked, revise their ideas, and watch their growth come to life layer by layer.\r\n\r\nThis project didn't just teach them about 3D modeling or printing. It taught them how to think like engineers, collaborate, problem-solve, and take pride in creating something meaningful for others.
