My Project

The solar powered car, wind, and water kits will help me introduce the concepts of solar, wind, and hydro power energy to my students. These activities will help my students to understand the fundamental principles of solar, wind, and hydro energy and how it is used in our daily lives. These STEM activities will combine science, technology, engineering, and mathematics concepts. It will also provide hands-on learning experiences that promote environmental sustainability and empower my students to become problem solvers. Providing these resources will not only enhance the learning experience of my students but also make them more environmentally conscious.

We have all experienced the effects that COVID-19 has had on academic and social-emotional learning.

Keeping this in mind I am incorporating the plus-plus big and sensory suction activity as brain- breaks to help my students rest and recharge. Brain breaks help my students maintain focus and reduce stress: making learning more enjoyable and effective.
