My Project

These Plus Plus blocks will allow students to have hands-on learning to deepen their understanding of how movement and motion work when they are building simple machines in STEM class. These engineering concepts are foundational to them understanding how their great big world works!

Two sets of Plus Plus blocks will provide ample items for students to work independently thereby increasing their learning.

These blocks are flexible while holding firm allowing students to test their designs and adjust their concepts as they go. These blocks are multipurpose and will allow students to create wheels, pulleys, incline planes, levels, as well as using them for structural engineering lessons. Placing these tools in the hands of our Title 1 learners is very important.
