With the new materials, students have been able to practice essential life skills such as safely cutting food, measuring ingredients, and using mixing bowls to prepare simple meals. These activities not only build confidence in the kitchen but also reinforce important math, sequencing, and safety skills in a fun and practical way. The addition of a hand-held blender has further expanded these opportunities, allowing students to explore new techniques and actively participate in the cooking process.\r\n\r\nBeyond cooking, the donated resources have also supported students' developmental and academic growth. The books have become a favorite during free time, encouraging a love of reading and helping to build literacy skills in an enjoyable, self-directed way. Additionally, items like playdough have been especially beneficial for students who need to strengthen their fine motor skills. Through play and manipulation, students are improving hand strength and coordination, which supports their overall learning and independence. These donations have truly enriched our classroom environment, making learning more interactive, inclusive, and impactful for every student.","fullyFundedDate":1769192046753,"projectUrl":"project/transitional-life-skills/9833537/","projectTitle":"Transitional Life Skills","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Aneesa","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-2_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10314002"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_89991","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":1602,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":6,"percentBlack":15,"percentWhite":36,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":35,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":74.1,"schoolId":89991,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Scranton High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Scranton High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/pennsylvania/scranton-school-district/scranton-high-school/89991"}
