My Project

My students love school and I am always trying my hardest to foster their love of learning. I desire to provide them with the best possible resources, since many children cannot access them in other ways. They have a passionate love for acquiring knowledge through any means possible. They are very inquisitive about the world around them!

STEM is a growing skill needed across all areas of life and schooling.

The STEM materials including Coding Robots, a chain reaction kit, LEGOS and other materials will provide hands-on learning experiences to my students.

The LEGOs allow them to practice building and experimenting with structures and force and motion. Using these tools will allow students to experiment and see in a kinesthetic way how circuits work and operate.

These resources are building upon the skills that students need throughout their lives. It is important that students are exposed to these materials so they can become better thinkers and problem-solvers.
