My Students

Our students come from diverse backgrounds. We currently have a number of students who are new to the country and speak limited English, if any. The students are eager to learn and experience things.

We are currently starting to promote Computer Science for all and are in need of supplies.

The students are excited to begin this adventure. Although our students come from a variety of cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds, most are eager to learn and try new things. They enjoy thinking outside of the box and being challenged.

My Project

I am eager to create STEM bins for my students. I want to provide the students with a variety of materials such as pipe cleaners, wooden blocks, cotton balls, Play-Doh, eyes, and pom-poms. We can use these materials to

stimulate our imagination with STEM!

These materials will be used to solve problems, collaborate, design, build, and create amazing objects that will solve real world problems. They will have a chance to think outside the box and use 21st Century skills. These activities will provide an outlet for students and allow time for fun, creativity, collaboration, discussion, and out of the box tasks!
