Children truly learn best through play, and the new materials you provided have given my students hands on opportunities to explore, create, and think deeply every day.\r\n\r\nWe've already used the Model Magic clay during a fall themed art and writing activity. Students sculpted their own pumpkins, then used their creations as inspiration for descriptive writing. Watching them proudly hold up their pumpkin sculptures was a powerful reminder of how creative materials spark stronger engagement and deeper learning.\r\n\r\nDuring math rotations, students have been using the Brain Flakes to build shapes, patterns, and models. The hands on learning has brought out collaboration, problem solving, and so much excitement.\r\n\r\nWhen the materials first arrived, the students were instantly captivated. There were wide eyes, big smiles, and lots of \"Can we use them today?!\" \r\n\r\nThese resources will continue to support our learning throughout the year. In the coming weeks, students will use the Model Magic for winter themed art and writing, and Brain Flakes will continue to be part of our daily math rotations as we explore geometry and early engineering skills.\r\n\r\nThank you for believing in the power of playful learning. Your generosity has made our classroom a place where imagination, curiosity, and hands on exploration truly come to life.","fullyFundedDate":1758808084604,"projectUrl":"project/students-learn-best-through-play/9490221/","projectTitle":"Students Learn Best Through Play!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Morawczynski","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10060288_orig.jpg?crop=180,180,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1765495902694","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10060288"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_94905","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":73,"numTeachers":11,"percentFrplEligible":60,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":94,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":3,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"6.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_REMOTE"},"inStateSupporters":75.3,"schoolId":94905,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Glacial Hills Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Glacial Hills Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/minnesota/minnesota-department-of-education/glacial-hills-elementary-school/94905"}
