Your contributions have allowed us to bring vertical learning to life, creating opportunities for students to collaborate, communicate, and deepen their mathematical understanding.\r\n\r\nWhen students first saw our new materials, they were shocked, excited, and incredibly thankful! Their enthusiasm quickly translated into increased engagement and a willingness to participate. Through our Connect & Compare activities, students work collaboratively at vertical whiteboards to solve problems, compare strategies, and explain their mathematical reasoning. One of the most rewarding moments has been watching students confidently share their thinking, challenge one another's approaches, and recognize that there can be multiple pathways to a solution.\r\n\r\nMoving forward, we will continue implementing strategies from Building Thinking Classrooms to strengthen mathematical discourse, critical thinking, and collaboration. Our goal is to create a classroom where students are not simply finding answers but are actively thinking, justifying their reasoning, and learning from one another.\r\n\r\nBecause of your kindness, our students have more opportunities to engage in meaningful mathematical learning experiences. Thank you for investing in our students and helping us build a classroom full of confident, capable mathematical thinkers!","fullyFundedDate":1787585335189,"projectUrl":"project/vertical-thinking-taking-math-off-the-p/10463535/","projectTitle":"Vertical Thinking: Taking Math Off the Page","teacherDisplayName":"Dr. Johnson","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-9_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/5637096"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_1827","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1109,"numTeachers":78,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":4,"percentBlack":46,"percentWhite":13,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":32,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":3,"gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"14.2:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":"SUBURB_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":64.2,"schoolId":1827,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about East Garner Magnet Middle School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"East Garner Magnet Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/north-carolina/wake-county-public-school-system/east-garner-magnet-middle-school/1827"}
