Your generosity has transformed our classrooms into dynamic, problem-solving labs where every student is an active participant in their learning journey.\r\n\r\nInstead of reading a chapter on the periodic table, our students had to use their knowledge to literally \"break out\" of an escape scenario by analyzing atomic structure, calculating atomic masses, and synthesizing information from multiple sources. The \"lessons\" they learned were deeply ingrained because they were used instantly, not just memorized.\r\n\r\nOur science classroom has been completely revitalized. It no longer looks like a space where knowledge is passively received, but rather a workshop where it is actively constructed. This is shown in a couple of ways:\r\n\r\nNoise Level: It's productive, focused buzz—students debating, brainstorming, and celebrating small victories.\r\n\r\nMovement: Students are up, moving between stations, physically manipulating materials, and inspecting clues hidden around the room.\r\n\r\nThe \"Reading\" Process: In our Breakout sessions, \"reading\" involves investigation. Students \"read\" the physical locks, \"read\" the results of a simple experiment, \"read\" the patterns in a diagram, and \"read\" their teammates' ideas to find the solution. Every clue is a piece of text that must be deciphered, resulting in a deeper, more meaningful engagement with the content. \r\n\r\nYour support has given us a dynamic tool that reinforces science concepts while intentionally building 21st-century skills like teamwork, perseverance, and communication. Thank you for helping us turn our science standards into exciting, real-world challenges that motivate every student.","fullyFundedDate":1757522634334,"projectUrl":"project/breakoutedu-gamify-the-science-classroo/9579596/","projectTitle":"BreakoutEDU: Gamify the Science Classroom","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Baldwin","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10171245_orig.jpg?crop=2316,2316,x0,y386&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1755007681156","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10171245"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_68817","usesÐǿմ«Ã½":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":775,"numTeachers":42,"percentFrplEligible":80,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":81,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":13,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"18.5:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"TOWN","ncesMetroType":"TOWN_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":61.3,"schoolId":68817,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Ionia High School on @Ðǿմ«Ã½:","schoolName":"Ionia High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/michigan/ionia-public-schools/ionia-high-school/68817"}
