My Students

Upper grade students visit Science Lab twice a week for an hour each time to explore with hands-on Science experiments and experiences. Students are able to take charge of their learning and experience the scientific world in a classroom where risks and exploration are welcome.

"It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge" -Albert Einstein

All 4th, 5th and 6th grades all have unique experiences in Science Lab with a wide variety of student needs.

My Project

We have recently installed a LEGO wall into our Science Lab. This has opened a world of creative possibilities for my students. Building with lego helps promote creativity, develops problem solving skills, and encourages team work.

LEGO: Inspire and develop the builders of tomorrow.

Having sets of LEGO bricks allows the students to have their creativity to shine through. It also gives students permission to be in charge of their own learning and experiences, by encouraging the freedom to express themselves.

The Lego Wall Project would reach three grade levels ( 4, 5 & 6), about 300 students with all ability levels.

Never LEGO of your creativity!!
