My Students

Students in my class are bright, excited, and eager to learn. More than half of my students are English Language Learners or come from families living in extreme poverty situations. The children enjoy learning in a variety of ways and benefit most from hands-on materials that let them experience, problem solve and create independently. I would like to offer more opportunities to learn using an array of materials. I would also like to be able to allow my students the freedom to move, interact and be flexible within the classroom community. Anytime something new or different is introduced, student engagement and excitement rises.

My Project

My students are in need of hands-on educational resources that will help them become problem solvers, practice teamwork and develop perseverance.

Students will use the resources to complete various STEM projects and activities individually and within a group.

The students will be given a task or problem to solve. They must then develop an action plan for solving the problem, follow the plan to completion and then persevere to keep trying if their initial plan doesn't work correctly.

Perseverance, teamwork, and problem-solving are necessary skills essential to life long success. I want to help my students develop those skills! I believe the use of these materials will encourage that!
