These cards provide critical visual support for language learners and spark curiosity. I did not have to monitor the groups as much because students were drawn to the cards: academic conversation, reading and writing happened quite naturally as they worked together to analyze how diet impacts ecological relationships. Next week, students will use these cards to build their own food chain and food web for their chosen biome and think about the impact of human and natural events on their food chain and food web. As we progress in the curriculum, other ecology card games and chemistry model from your generous donation will be used to help students understand the nuances in complex relationships in our environment. For example, I'm excited to use the chemistry model for students to photosynthesize their own glucose!","fullyFundedDate":1778241765478,"projectUrl":"project/gamify-ecology-for-ells/10266345/","projectTitle":"Gamify Ecology for ELLs","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Jiang","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-1_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8214020"},{"teacherId":3378240,"projectId":10273873,"letterContent":"On behalf of The Domino and the social media team, I want to thank everyone for helping to fund our project. This was a big step for our class/club/organization in further developing higher quality student content. The most paramount objective in the school is to empower student voice and creativity; the lights and podcast equipment is helping foster the students' active role in connecting with the Richmond Hill community. \r\nThe class, which began as a student-run Instagram account, has evolved into a dual-role environment between the student newspaper and the social media team. With your generosity, the students will now further explore the world of podcasting to add to our library of expanding content and mediums.\r\nThe editors-in-chief have delegated new roles and responsibilities for photography (currently wrapping up headshots for the website and id badges) and our first foray into podcasting about our school's new academy setup (the students' choice for a first episode!). Our equipment manager is especially grateful for the new supplies (even if it comes with more work for cataloguing, maintaining, and supervising it all!).\r\nIt is with the utmost gratitude that I extend to the donors in supporting our class/club.\r\n\r\nFollow us on Instagram @rhhslions_official\r\nCheck out our student newspaper: www.rhhsdomino.com","fullyFundedDate":1778243523236,"projectUrl":"project/student-newspaper-and-social-media-team/10273873/","projectTitle":"Student Newspaper and Social Media Team Upgrades","teacherDisplayName":"Mr. Solomon","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp3378240_orig.jpg?crop=1080,1080,x544,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1778238902841","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/3378240"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_1116","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1824,"numTeachers":130,"percentFrplEligible":88,"percentAsian":28,"percentBlack":9,"percentWhite":2,"percentIndigenous":2,"percentLatinx":55,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":0,"gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"14.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":73.3,"schoolId":1116,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Richmond Hill High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Richmond Hill High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-york/new-york-city-dept-of-ed/richmond-hill-high-school/1116"}
