My Students

Watching students create and explain their thoughts about their creativity, is necessary for students to become productive adults.

My students are multi- cultural and from diverse backgrounds.

They will operate as adults in similar situations. They will need to work with others to achieve a common goal. This project is designed to promote such behaviors among the students. It will promote leadership and the ability to consider ideas of others.

My Project

My students will use the Lego's will help my students create a model based on inventions done by Leonardo DaVinci. They will use the Lego's to create and imagine if their design could possibly work. Children need to use this kind of creativity to help them solve problems and learn how to work together for a common goal.

It is very important for students to be creative and use their imagination because this will help them be life long learners.

It is also imperative that students learn to work in a collaborative group to help solve problems. As adults our children will need to use technology to design, build, and create things that we cannot even imagine, this will be their starting block.
