We are sincerely so grateful for you and the money you gave.\r\n\r\nFirst off, I told my kindergarteners about this project and every day a new package arrived, I would open it in front of them so they could see what had been sent to us. Their faces beamed each and every time at what the special item(s) were inside of the box.\r\n\r\nMy students have had the best time exploring everything that was sent to us. I have parent volunteers in my classroom every day of the week and my kindergarteners know that when they come in, the board games come out and they get to play! They are learning how to play the games, how to follow the rules, how to play as a team, be gracious winners and how to accept defeat. This has been a huge lesson for some, but very worthwhile for all!\r\n\r\nI would say that what the kids love most of all are the STEM toys we have received! They LOVE building with them! They plan out what they want to create, they share their plan with the other students they are playing with and then try to carry out their plans to create some really wonderful things. It's the most fun to watch their creative minds bring a thought to fruition. Thank you again for your contribution to our classroom! We would not have these great toys and games without you!","fullyFundedDate":1729529580851,"projectUrl":"project/kindergarteners-learning-through-play/8521344/","projectTitle":"Kindergarteners Learning Through Play!","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Argo","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-3_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9608904"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_128813","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":307,"numTeachers":null,"percentFrplEligible":33,"percentAsian":4,"percentBlack":2,"percentWhite":62,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":17,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - K","studentTeacherRatio":null,"demographicsDataSource":"MDR District Weighted Average","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"SUBURBAN","ncesMetroType":null},"inStateSupporters":100.0,"schoolId":128813,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Sumner Early Learning Center on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Sumner Early Learning Center","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/washington/sumner-bonney-lake-school-district-320/sumner-early-learning-center/128813"}
