One specific project that stood out was our unit on force and motion. The students were thrilled when they first saw the LEGO sets—they couldn't wait to get their hands on them! Using the engineering design process, they explored concepts like push, pull, friction, and acceleration by building their own moving creations. It was amazing to see them collaborate, experiment, and problem-solve together.\r\n\r\nOne memorable moment was when a group of students built a car and adjusted the wheels and axles to see how it affected speed and distance. Their excitement and curiosity led to deeper understanding through self-exploration and hands-on learning.\r\n\r\nLooking ahead, I'm excited to develop more enrichment programs using LEGOs, especially as we expand our focus on STEM education. I'm also hoping to build my stock of LEGO sets to support whole-class lessons, allowing every student to engage fully in these creative, educational experiences. Thanks to the donors, we've opened up a world of discovery, and we can't wait to see where our LEGO adventures take us next!","fullyFundedDate":1723643747367,"projectUrl":"project/unlocking-stem-potential-engaging-young/8449229/","projectTitle":"Unlocking STEM Potential: Engaging Young Minds With Lego® Education","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Cunningham","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6779079_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1661819721455","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6779079"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_1435","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":366,"numTeachers":37,"percentFrplEligible":44,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":19,"percentWhite":40,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":33,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"9.9:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":74.7,"schoolId":1435,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Club Boulevard Magnet Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Club Boulevard Magnet Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/north-carolina/durham-public-schools/club-blvd-humanities-magnet-school/1435"}
