My Project

I am developing the STEAM art program for our middle school students. This is a wonderful way to create project based, interactive projects and activities to incorporate cross-curricular content specifically in math and science. I collaborate with the 5-8 content teachers and create projects relative to their subject matter. The students enjoy the hands-on, project based learning because it presents the content material in a more 'relatable' way. This Paper Circuit Board Game will present the science standard 'open and closed circuits'. Then they can enjoy playing their game with other students!
