My Project

My students are very full of life and love to do hands-on activities. Students learn when they are actively involved in the curriculum and can see the results of their hard work. The t-shirts will be used as engineering and learning projects about colors and changes in colors while using a tie-dye kit. Students will be able to experience how colors are changed and new ones are formed. Beachballs, bubbles and buckets will be used as a way to see the effects of air on objects. All materials will be used in different STEM or engineering activities.
