My Project

Including these models on library shelves will create a dynamic and interactive library environment that encourages students to explore books and learning materials through themed shelving and educational centers. Libraries are more than just a place to find books—they are spaces where students can explore new ideas, develop inquiry skills, and make real-world connections.

These models will transform the library into a dynamic learning environment, allowing students to connect theoretical knowledge from books to hands-on activities.

Earth science, anatomy, geography, and time will be explored through using these models. My goal is to create engaging learning centers that complement our dynamic shelving system, where students can explore books while interacting with related models to reinforce their understanding.

Our students are unique in their curiosity and diversity; they come from various cultural backgrounds, and this project will help them build strong connections to the material, making the library an inclusive space for discovery and creativity.
