With the Lego Spike Essential sets, the classroom has transformed into a high-energy laboratory where \"failure\" is just another word for \"data.\" When a program doesn't run quite right or a structural joint isn't sturdy enough, the students don't get discouraged; instead, they pivot. They are developing the essential of communication and compromise as they negotiate design choices within their teams, proving that the human element of engineering is just as vital as the hardware.\r\n\r\nYour generous contribution has provided the tangible tools needed to spark this level of critical thinking. Beyond the motors and sensors, you have given them the freedom to iterate. They are no longer limited by a lack of resources, allowing them to re-think their initial concepts and push their imagination to the limit. By supporting this project, you are investing in a future generation of problem-solvers who aren't afraid to tear down a design and build something even better. Thank you for making this hands-on discovery possible for my students.","fullyFundedDate":1764726960410,"projectUrl":"project/ignite-and-excite-programing-with-legos/9888646/","projectTitle":"Ignite and Excite-Programing with LEGOs","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Harvey","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp3551856_orig.png?crop=481,481,x0,y19&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1762813619678","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/jo-harvey"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_45279","uses�ǿմ�ý":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":677,"numTeachers":42,"percentFrplEligible":81,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":81,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":2,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"16.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":55.9,"schoolId":45279,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Swanton Elementary School on @�ǿմ�ý:","schoolName":"Swanton Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/vermont/franklin-northwest-su-21/swanton-central-school/45279"}
