My 3rd graders were incredibly excited when they first saw the LEGO sets and snacks arrive. The students immediately noticed all of the different themed sets, especially the flower set and the Spider-Man scene, and could not wait to begin building together. The snacks have also been extremely helpful in ensuring students have access to something during the school day when needed so they can stay focused and ready to learn.\r\n\r\nWe have been using the LEGO sets during teamwork and STEM-based activities focused on collaboration, communication, and problem solving. Students worked together to assign roles, follow detailed directions, organize materials, and support one another throughout the building process. One of my favorite moments was watching groups carefully work through challenges together while encouraging each other and celebrating when they completed their builds. These activities have helped my students strengthen important skills such as patience, cooperation, leadership, and perseverance in a fun and engaging way.\r\n\r\nAs we continue through the school year, students will keep using these materials during collaborative STEM challenges and classroom community-building activities. We are continuing to focus on teamwork, critical thinking, and following multi-step directions while giving students opportunities to learn through hands-on experiences. Thank you again for helping create such meaningful learning opportunities for my students. Your generosity truly made a positive impact in our classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1773338240545,"projectUrl":"project/lego-lab-creativity-and-teamwork/9992117/","projectTitle":"LEGO Lab: Creativity and Teamwork","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. King","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp9620030_orig.jpg?crop=742,742,x216,y264&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1767821751393","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/mking121"},{"teacherId":8076060,"projectId":10049475,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for the generous donation of hats and gloves for our students.

Some students quietly expressed gratitude, while others just gave me hugs and couldn't believe a stranger would donate to our classes. It created a warm and supportive classroom environment where students feel cared for and ready to learn. During a recent lesson on fractions, I watched students who usually stay quiet jump right in raising their hands to naming the equal parts, sharing ideas about how to share the graham crackers equally , and collaborating to solve problems.

It has made a huge difference in such a short time, and we are so grateful for the way it has changed how our students are able to learn and grow every single day.\r\nBecause of your kindness, we've been able to set up another technology station in our classroom. This station has quickly become one of the most loved parts of our daily routine. Students are using adaptive learning websites that meet them right where they are, giving them the chance to move at their own pace, celebrate small victories, and build confidence in subjects that once felt intimidating. They aren't just \"using a computer\"—they are unlocking new ways to understand reading, math, and other subjects, and they are genuinely excited about it. \r\nOne of the biggest changes we've noticed is how inclusive this technology station has made our classroom feel. In the past, when a Chromebook wasn't working or when someone forgot theirs at home, there was always that sense of stress or worry. Students might feel like they were falling behind or missing out. Now, instead of being left out or having to wait for a repair or loaner device, they can head straight to our new station and jump right in. This has made such a difference in their confidence. They know they will always have a way to participate, and that reassurance shows in how much more relaxed and engaged they are during lessons.\r\n Every day we see students benefiting from your kindness, and we know that the skills and confidence they are building now will carry with them far beyond our classroom walls.\r\nThank you again for believing in our students and for making such a difference.","fullyFundedDate":1746786506053,"projectUrl":"project/enhanced-digital-learning/9049235/","projectTitle":"Enhanced Digital Learning","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. DePasquale","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8076060"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_22400","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":600,"numTeachers":37,"percentFrplEligible":94,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":14,"percentWhite":4,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":79,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":0,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"16.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":64.1,"schoolId":22400,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Summit Park Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Summit Park Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-york/east-ramapo-central-school-district/summit-park-elementary-school/22400"}
