My Project

Brainiacs is a newly developed after-school program that aims to further enhance and enrich the learning experiences of our highest-performing students in our school. This newly launched program needs engaging learning materials for our 35, K-5 students. Twice a week, they will have the opportunity to do reading and math enrichment activities. With these materials, our students will continue to be driven to seek success, and most importantly, feel appreciated for the value of their academic strengths through fun and engaging activities every week!

Most of these materials will stay with our afters-chool Brainiacs classes for many years to follow.

Amongst the list includes, math and reading games (board games), puzzles, hands-on activities, riddles, writing materials, and STEM project resources.
