My Project

My students are always ready to try something new and because of that, I want to be a better teacher every day. I am teaching six sections of STEM classes at four different grade levels in our middle school. My classes are STEM, Robotics, Digital Applications, and Pre-engineering design. I am loving all the unique learning that is happening. My classes have been filled with robotics, designing, planning, creating, building, critical thinking and so much more!

Design is a universal language where students can be as creative as they would like.

I want to be able to hang their designs in the hall easily and be able to switch them out frequently.

The colorful duct tape will be used for 5th grade designs. The packaging tape, mounting tape and cork strips will allow me to have a better place to hang student work. The magnet hooks and buckets will be used for different activities within the classroom.

Our school includes over sixty percent free or reduced-price lunch recipients. Together our community, parents, and staff work to get us everything we need. I am so grateful to have wonderful people like you also partnering with us to help get our students everything they so deserve.
