They have used the light table for a variety of academic theme-based activities, such as color sorting, counting \"ornaments\" on a tree, and building snowflakes with various shapes. We have also used the stand up magnetic board for multiple activities - we learned about motion by creating ramps and putting various weight balls down, we used it vertically build with magnatiles, and we traced shape road maps with cars to cross their midline. We have been able to explore all of the different light table manipulatives and imbedded them into multiple centers, even outside of the light table. My students have been much more engrossed in their learning and have been able to practice more academic and social concepts through different mediums. Thank you all again for your impactful donation, as it has made a huge difference within my classroom in such a short period of time. I can't wait to see how my students continue to learn and grow the rest of this school year!","fullyFundedDate":1727280385300,"projectUrl":"project/early-childhood-special-education-studen/8521546/","projectTitle":"Early Childhood Special Education Students Grow Through Hands-On STEM","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Tory","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7895932_orig.jpg?crop=540,540,x0,y43&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1625346720717","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7895932"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_14367","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":582,"numTeachers":60,"percentFrplEligible":74,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":5,"percentWhite":18,"percentIndigenous":1,"percentLatinx":70,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"9.7:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":81.0,"schoolId":14367,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Annie Purl Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Annie Purl Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/georgetown-independent-school-district/annie-purl-elementary-school/14367"}
