My students are using the magnetic pieces to explore how shapes connect, balance, and work together to create structures. One of their favorite activities has been working together to build towers, houses, and creative designs. As they build, they are learning important STEM skills such as problem-solving, spatial awareness, teamwork, and perseverance—all while having fun.\r\n\r\nFor my Pre-K students, learning through hands-on experiences makes a huge difference. They are not simply being told about STEM concepts—they are discovering them for themselves. Their excitement, questions, and willingness to try new ideas have made these resources a wonderful addition to our classroom.\r\n\r\nI am excited to see where their creativity takes them! These resources are helping my students understand that it is okay when something doesn't work the first time. They are learning to problem-solve, collaborate, and persevere—and those are skills that will stay with them far beyond our classroom.\r\n\r\nThank you for giving my students the opportunity to spark their curiosity, snap together new ideas, and learn through hands-on STEM adventures! Your generosity has helped make learning exciting, meaningful, and memorable for our youngest learners.","fullyFundedDate":1778178092200,"projectUrl":"project/spark-snap-learn-help-us-fund-magneti/10194463/","projectTitle":"Spark, Snap, Learn: Help Us Fund Magnetic STEM Adventures","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Garcia","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7159718_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1690927793873","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7159718"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_14595","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":260,"numTeachers":29,"percentFrplEligible":81,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":2,"percentWhite":33,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":60,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","percentHawaiianImputed":0,"percentMultiracialImputed":4,"gradesServed":"Pre-K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"9.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":86.2,"schoolId":14595,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Tahoka Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Tahoka Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/texas/tahoka-independent-school-district/tahoka-elementary-school/14595"}
