Your contribution has made a remarkable difference, and I can't thank you enough for supporting our learning journey in such a meaningful way.\r\n\r\nSince receiving the materials for fossils, my students have been absolutely thrilled to explore these real-world treasures. They were in awe when they first saw the materials, their eyes lighting up with excitement as they carefully examined each fossil, asking questions and imagining the ancient worlds from which these specimens came. The enthusiasm in the room was contagious—it was clear that your donation had sparked their curiosity in a way that no textbook or digital resource could.\r\n\r\nWe've already begun using the fossils in a hands-on classroom project focused on paleontology. The students are working in small groups to analyze and classify the fossils, creating their own fossil displays and identifying patterns that might reveal clues about past ecosystems. One of the most exciting moments so far was when a student made a connection between a fossilized bone and a species they had just read about in class. The sense of discovery was palpable, and I could see the pride in their faces as they made this connection.\r\n\r\nThank you once again for your thoughtful and impactful donation. We are so grateful for your support and for the opportunity to engage with these incredible resources.","fullyFundedDate":1738014598090,"projectUrl":"project/fossil-hunters/9003959/","projectTitle":"Fossil Hunters","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Wall","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8888936_orig.jpg?crop=716,716,x354,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1701218037949","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8888936"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_54105","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":701,"numTeachers":48,"percentFrplEligible":65,"percentAsian":25,"percentBlack":42,"percentWhite":9,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":11,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"14.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":60.9,"schoolId":54105,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Edinbrook Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Edinbrook Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/minnesota/osseo-independent-school-district-279/edinbrook-elementary-school/54105"}
