My Project

Hands-on science labs are a great way for my students to make predictions, ask questions, test their predictions, make observations, and analyze data. Exposing my students to science and engineering practices will help them expand their knowledge and experiences.

With your help, I can light up my student's minds by teaching them about circuits.

Students will create simple paper circuits using copper tape, diodes, and 3-volt batteries. Building electric robots will encourage my students to use higher-level thinking and problem-solving skills.

Bring the excitement of building marble roller coasters to our classroom! The motion of marbles as they roll down ramps is an excellent way for my students to learn how objects move. Students will create different tracks for marbles as they experiment with the forces of friction and gravity!
