  • Engineering Excitement!

    Funded Sep 20, 2023

    Thank you so much for your very generous donation!

    Because of your generosity, my STEM students are able to work together and create the most amazing discovering with the K'Nex pieces. From roller coasters to swing sets to bridges, they can make anything they want! I challenge my students with different projects and they love engineering to complete the projects.

    Seeing the level of creativity improve day-by-day is huge! I am so grateful to be able to provide these resources for STEM education and I am so thankful to you for giving us this opportunity!”

  • K'NEX Engineering Fun!

    Funded Jul 22, 2023

    Thank you so much for your very generous donation! My students and I really appreciate your generosity!

    The K'Nex kits are such a great addition to my STEM classroom! I use them for the older grades and they have such a great time building things like bridges, swings, cars, and so much more. I offer different STEM challenges and they are able to work together to create using the K'Nex building pieces.

    I can't wait to see what else my students can do with engineering. I want to thank you, once again, for making this possible. Thank you!”

  • Shhhhh, We Are Coding!

    Funded May 11, 2023

    Thank you so much for your very generous donation!

    My students and I are so excited for these headphones for many reasons.

    The headphones are so nice looking and comfortable and everyone enjoys wearing them. They provide my STEM students with the ability to focus on their coding tasks without any distractions from outside noises. They also provide me, the teacher, with some much needed quiet time while everyone is working so nicely.

    Thank you so much for giving us the opportunity to have beautiful new headphones in class! You are very much appreciated!”

  • Future Engineers!

    Funded May 26, 2023

    Thank you so much for your very generous donation!

    With your kindness, my STEM students will be able to enjoy countless hours of fun, creative engineering time.

    These materials are brand new to my students and they have never seen them before. I believe these kits are going to unlock their imaginations and new creations will be invented.

    Thank you for allowing me to bring these amazing engineering materials to my students! Without awesome people like you, teachers would not be able to provide new and exciting materials to their classrooms.

    Thank you so much!!!!”

  • Winter Wonderland Hot Cocoa and Snacks

    Funded May 10, 2023

    Thank you so much for your very generous donation!

    I am so excited about this "Winter Wonderland Hot Cocoa and Snacks" project, even though I posted it in the winter. The school year is coming to a close at the end of June, with just a few weeks left. Everyone definitely needs social-emotional support these days! Students and staff are stressed out and need motivation and encouragement now more than ever!

    The snacks and drinks are the perfect answer and everyone has such a huge smile on their face when they see all of the delicious snacks! It gives everyone a chance to get together, talk, have a few laughs, and of course eat and drink together.

    I feel like this project was the perfect project, as it brought so many people together.

    Thank you for making this magic happen for us!”

  • Qobo Snail Robot Fun! Part Two

    Funded Feb 9, 2023

    Thank you so much for your very generous donation to my Qobo Snail Robot project!

    My students have been so excited to learn coding skills in a fun, hands-on way. I have been looking for robots that are easy enough for the younger grades to use, and these Qobo robots are awesome.

    There is a large map that you can put on the table with puzzle pieces. Within minutes, my kindergarten students were able to figure out how to make the Qobo robot go. It was amazing to see! I just know they are going to learn so much from the Qobo robots and I can't wait to see the outcome!

    Thank you so much for giving my students the opportunity to learn coding in such a fun way! I really appreciate it!”

  • LEGO Engineering Creations

    Funded Jan 28, 2023

    Thank you so much for your very generous donation! My students and I really appreciate it!

    These LEGO engineering kits are really awesome! They come with picture cards that give the younger students ideas of things to build. They get really excited when they find the LEGO pieces and put them all together. They love matching their creations with the picture cards.

    My older students love these LEGO kits, too. There are so many different sizes of LEGO and the colors are appealing. The sizes allow them to use their creativity and build various things.

    Thank you so much for giving us the opportunity! We love engineering and these kits are going to go a long way! Thank you!”

  • Qobo Snail Robot Fun!

    Funded Dec 12, 2022

    Thank you so much for your very generous donation! I am genuinely grateful for the opportunity to use these adorable Quobo Snail Robots with my STEM students!

    The boys and girls really love the Quobo Snail Robots. It has puzzle pieces with basic coding commands and a cute map to place on the table. My younger students have no problem understanding how to problem-solve and move the Quobo Snail Robot to different spots on the map.

    I look forward to even more coding and problem-solving possibilities with my STEM students. Thank you so much for making this possible!”

  • STEMtastic Engineering Fun!

    Funded Dec 2, 2022

    Thank you so much for your very generous donation! Words cannot express how grateful I truly am.

    My STEM students absolutely love engineering! They love being able to work together to create different things to solve real-world problems. Sometimes, they just use their imaginations to build just for fun. These STEM engineering building blocks are perfect for whatever my students decide to build. They are colorful and come with so many pieces. The possibilities are endless and my students have such a great time each and every time!

    Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to expose my students to different building materials! I really appreciate it!”

  • Coding Critters Fun!

    Funded Jan 1, 2023

    Thank you so much for your generous donation to "Coding Critters Fun!" The dragon and unicorn coding robots and accessories are the most adorable additions to my STEM classroom!

    I originally created this project with my younger students, kindergarten through second graders, in mind. However, my upper-grade students enjoy coding with these critters, too!

    The magic wand has the codes, instead of the actual robot and everyone has so much fun programming the dragon and unicorn with it. These critters will definitely provide countless hours of coding fun for all of my students! Thank you for this opportunity!”

I am a STEM teacher at P.S. 123Q in South Ozone Park, New York, a Title 1 school. I strive to make Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math exciting, engaging, and fun using a hands-on approach. I teach Kindergarten through fifth grade and challenge my students to solve real world problems in creative ways. Recently, I have joined the CS4All Cohort (Computer Science Education) and will begin teaching code using programs such as Scratch. I am so excited and have so many amazing computer science lessons planned for each grade.
