My Project

All of my students deserve to learn about various opportunities that can be available in years to come. My class is able to learn regardless of their learning challenges. I believe in my students and want to give them a hands on experience. Teaching students how to become individuals that are self sufficient begins early with exploration. Helping to show them the various STEM can only have help to empower them. This helps the students to put real world scenarios with opportunities from various sources that can mold their young minds to move beyond what they see and feel because of society negativity. It also helps to build the self-esteem that they need to triumph in the midst of adversity.
