I am a 4th grade Project Lead the Way teacher at Gardenhill Elementary in La Mirada, CA. Gardenhill is one of only a handful of elementary schools across the nation that is launching PLTW at the elementary level. PLTW is a hands on integrated science, technology, engineers and math curriculum. Our school is pioneers in the STEM community! I want my "engineers" to think critically, problem solve, and collaborate. My goal is to expose my students to STEM at an early age. My hope is that PLTW will help inspire future scientist, especially my girls! We need more women scientists! Mrs. Berchtold's Brainiacs needs your help! We need technology to support the program. My classroom would greatly benefit from your donations. Please support our class and future scientists!!!!
