Through hands-on games, students explored what makes a game \"fair\" or \"unfair,\" testing outcomes, analyzing patterns, and debating results in ways that felt meaningful and fun. Instead of abstract numbers on a page, probability became something they could see, touch, and experience together.\r\n\r\nYour support also allowed us to broaden whose knowledge is valued in math. With games ranging from Dreidel before winter break to Mancala and Lotería, students learned that probability is deeply embedded in cultures around the world and often used to build community. The 3D printing filament you provided will help students design and create their own games, turning their ideas into reality while honoring diverse traditions. Thank you for helping our students see math not just as a subject, but as a shared human experience that connects cultures, creativity, and critical thinking.","fullyFundedDate":1757617249857,"projectUrl":"project/math-comes-to-engineering-class/9474464/","projectTitle":"Math Comes to Engineering Class","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Noffsinger","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp1026911_orig.jpg?crop=956,956,x0,y3&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1625846798631","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/1026911"},{"teacherId":1026911,"projectId":9474336,"letterContent":"Because of your generosity, our middle school engineering classroom started the year with more than just supplies—we started with belonging. Stickers and duct tape became tools for self-expression as students customized their engineering notebooks to reflect their interests, cultures, and strengths. These small choices helped students feel ownership over their learning from day one. One of the most powerful moments came from our inclusive bandages: when a student saw a bandaid that matched their skin tone, they exclaimed, \"I've never had a bandaid that was my skin color—that's cool! Everyone should do this!\" That moment captured exactly what your support made possible—students feeling seen, valued, and respected.\r\n\r\nYour donation also made learning more sustainable and accessible. Dry erase pockets have been heavily used to protect class materials and significantly reduce printing, allowing us to reuse resources while keeping lessons interactive and hands-on. These pockets have supported daily problem-solving, quick checks for understanding, and iterative design work that is central to engineering thinking.\r\n\r\nFinally, the incentives you helped provide have made a meaningful difference in student motivation and emotional support. They've been used to celebrate meeting expectations, encourage perseverance on tough days, and help students push themselves just a little further when learning feels challenging. Thanks to you, our classroom is not only equipped for engineering—it's a place where students feel encouraged, supported, and excited to learn.","fullyFundedDate":1753900419611,"projectUrl":"project/safe-start-to-a-new-school-year/9474336/","projectTitle":"Safe Start to a New School Year","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Noffsinger","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp1026911_orig.jpg?crop=956,956,x0,y3&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1625846798631","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/1026911"},{"teacherId":9295485,"projectId":9498797,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for supporting me and my students.

With the safer and more accessible design of these tanks, students will be able to interact with the animals more comfortably and confidently. This truly enhances their learning experience, allowing them to build even deeper empathy and compassion as they observe and care for these amazing creatures.\r\n\r\nWe're so excited to get these tanks set up and see the positive effect they have on our reptiles' well-being and our students' engagement.\r\n\r\nWhat's Next for Our Reptile Friends\r\nWe'll be working on transitioning our reptiles into their new homes and enriching their environments in the coming days.

Your support provided the materials we needed to bring science to life—literally glowing—in our classroom.\r\n\r\nThrough this hands-on activity, students explored not only the science behind density and chemical reactions but also gained a deeper understanding of the engineering design process. They engaged in the art of iteration—testing, refining, and improving their lava lamps—learning that failure is not the end, but an opportunity to think creatively and try again.\r\n\r\nThe excitement was unmistakable. Students were energized, focused, and deeply engaged. Many commented that it was one of the most fun and memorable activities they've ever done in science class. For some, it even sparked a new interest in engineering and design.\r\n\r\nYour generosity helped create a learning experience that was both educational and inspiring.

With this expanded setup, we've been able to provide a more equitable and personalized learning experience for every child in the program. The additional fields have allowed us to implement differentiated instruction more effectively. For students needing extra support, smaller groups have created a welcoming space to build confidence and develop fundamental skills at their own pace. Meanwhile, students who are ready for more advanced challenges can engage in extended learning opportunities, designing and testing innovative solutions without the bottleneck of waiting for field access. This approach has not only improved student outcomes but also fostered a sense of belonging and collaboration, ensuring that all learners feel empowered to reach their potential.\r\n\r\nIn just the second half of our robotics unit, the benefits have been extraordinary. Students have demonstrated increased engagement, motivation, and care for the equipment. They take pride in maintaining the materials and are fully immersed in the hands-on, problem-solving tasks that define our program.
