My Students

We are a Title I school and qualify for universal free breakfast and free lunch. But socioeconomic disadvantages will not stop us! We are eager to be future-ready, but we do not always have the resources available that we need.

Usually, my students visit the library with smiles on their faces and a joy for learning.

During library time, students check out books and gain library skills, but we also focus on building technology and social-emotional learning (SEL) skills.

Currently, we are unable to meet in person because of school closures due to coronavirus, though we hope we will be back to the new normal in the fall. We have more need than ever for up-to-date technology resources. Help us to maximize our abilities!

My Project

We are working to build up our Makerspace in the library and expand our students' exposure to STEAM activities. Breakout EDU is a fun way to engage in learning, problem solving, and group collaboration. The Breakout EDU kits have both physical lockboxes and an online platform, where students work together to solve clues and "escape" the challenge. In the library, we have done a free, preexisting Dewey Decimal challenge, a National Parks challenge, and a virtual museum tour challenge. These challenges were educational and well-received by students, but were limited, as they were created by others. With our own Breakout EDU kits, we can create and customize challenges to support any curricular or subject needs, in the library and throughout the school.

The Breakout EDU platform hits our STEAM goals and also facilitates SEL (Social-Emotional Learning) through teamwork and collaboration.

Getting comfortable with different technology is essential for all students, especially those from backgrounds where they might not have access to technology at home. We need to bridge the digital literacy gap as much as possible for all children. Plus, the digital platform for Breakout EDU enables its use for any future distance learning needs.
