When my students first saw the materials, their eyes lit up with curiosity, and they couldn't wait to dive in. Whether it was hands-on science kits, engaging books, or creative art supplies, they eagerly explored each item, immediately thinking of ways to use them. One memorable moment was when we used fraction tiles for a project on multiplying fractions students collaborated, asked thoughtful questions, and demonstrated a deeper understanding of the subject. Seeing their enthusiasm reaffirmed how impactful these materials are in enriching their learning experience.\r\n\r\nLooking ahead, we are excited to continue building on this momentum. Our next steps involve integrating these resources into upcoming lessons and projects, allowing students to apply their knowledge in meaningful ways. For example, we plan to use base ten blocks in a unit on decimal operations, encouraging students to think critically and creatively. These materials will provide them with the tools to explore, problem-solve, and express their ideas with confidence. Thanks to your generosity, my students have access to engaging, hands-on learning experiences that inspire them every day, and I can't wait to see their continued growth!","fullyFundedDate":1651583632932,"projectUrl":"project/math-manipulatives-matters/6415169/","projectTitle":"Math Manipulatives Matters","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. San Miguel","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp8431963_orig.jpg?crop=491,491,x0,y62&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1737134415977","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8431963"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_27413","uses�ǿմ�ý":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":528,"numTeachers":55,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":8,"percentBlack":24,"percentWhite":14,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":46,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"6 - 8","studentTeacherRatio":"9.6:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":73.1,"schoolId":27413,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Jane Addams Middle School on @�ǿմ�ý:","schoolName":"Jane Addams Middle School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/illinois/valley-view-cmty-sd-365-u/jane-addams-middle-school/27413"}
