My Project

I was fortunate to receive funding last year for my students to build rockets. This has excited and motivated my incoming students to anticipate the opportunity to experience building rockets. We live in a rural community that struggled during the pandemic to have resources for students in distance learning. Your support in funding building rockets (rockets, engines, etc. ) would allow my students to engage in hands-on learning while using problem solving, critical thinking skills, and learning of math and science concepts.

Building rockets would allow my students the opportunity to build community and learn objectives of force and motion.
