My Students

Situated in a small town, our school is a Title I school with a high percentage of students who receive free or reduced lunch. Our classroom is full of students who have multiple abilities and are working hard to overcome many roadblocks.

Each day when my students walk into my classroom, my goal is to immerse them in meaningful experiences that will motivate and inspire them.

My team and I work hard to provide experiences that will create opportunities for growth and learning.

My Project

Hands-on learning motivates my students the most! When students are working with their hands, creating, and engaged, their self-esteem, focus, and work ethic soar. Students in our class love to spend time building, creating and working together.

The Tinkering Toolbox will provide the supplies we need to create a permanent station in our classroom where students can put what they are learning to the test.

Instead of these integrated activities having to be an occasional treat, students will have the opportunity to engage and explore combining their skills of math, science, and creativity while they work. Self-directed learning will come alive with the Tinkering Toolbox.
