Being able to purchase this wonderful health curriculum has been a game changer this school year. I have been a health teacher for 9 years now and I am constantly trying to find up-to-date lessons with relevant and accurate health information that will teach my students the health standards. I have found that a textbook can never do the job well so I have to supplement with many outside lessons. I came across this Project School Wellness curriculum a couple years ago. I tried one of their units and new I had to have it. Each lesson presents relevant, important information to the students. There is a variety of activities included so that each student has a chance to explore a unit with their stronger learning styles and practice with their weaker learning styles. I appreciate the amount of group work and group discussions we can have in the health classroom setting. I also love that this curriculum covers the health standards. I can confidently plan and execute lessons knowing I am doing what I need to do for my students. Using this curriculum saves me time so I can spend more of my day interacting with students and spend more of my time away from work with my family. Thank you so much for making this possible!","fullyFundedDate":1764597217801,"projectUrl":"project/project-school-wellness-health-curriculu/9562134/","projectTitle":"Project School Wellness Health Curriculum Needed","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Ehlers","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9342601_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1724173029959","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9342601"},{"teacherId":9700093,"projectId":9396782,"letterContent":"My 9th-grade students have been learning to use the Micro:bits and sensors provided by my DonorsChoose project. To begin, students coded a few simple programs, such as a flashing heart and a dice game. We used the radio feature to simulate how fireflies will sync the pattern of their flashes. Students also utilized the built-in temperature sensor and data logger to collect temperature data from various surfaces, investigating which types of surfaces may contribute to urban heat islands. Now that my students are becoming familiar with using Micro:bits, we will begin using more complex code to integrate IoT expansion boards and multiple sensors to collect and analyze local weather data.\r\nStudents are impressed by the endless possibilities that the Micro:bit offers in terms of games, communication, data collection, and sensor technologies. They really appreciate the variety of sounds a Micro:bit can produce. Additionally, there are some students who aren't usually very engaged that light up when they get to code Micro: Bits. When I fill in at our Maker Space, I have been bringing Micro:bits for the middle school students to explore. This project has given me an easy and creative way to integrate computer science and sensor technologies into my science curriculum. The impact has been remarkable and rewarding to experience.","fullyFundedDate":1752678415313,"projectUrl":"project/place-based-stem-learning-using-microbi/9396782/","projectTitle":"Place-based STEM Learning Using Micro:bits","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Hinkle","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-7_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9700093"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_78474","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":198,"numTeachers":15,"percentFrplEligible":58,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":46,"percentIndigenous":35,"percentLatinx":2,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":1,"percentMultiracialImputed":13,"gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"13.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_REMOTE"},"inStateSupporters":42.9,"schoolId":78474,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Cut Bank High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Cut Bank High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/montana/cut-bank-school-district-15/cut-bank-high-school/78474"}
