My Students

Science is a wonderful world that many of my students are not familiar with. Push and pull, force and motion is a wonderful unit for hands-on learning! The books will provide for our visual learners, while the activity tub brings in the tactile and allows for experiments that they will remember.

ESL, Special Ed., BSI, GT, and regular education students make up the class that I love teaching.

These kids are very multi-sensory and gravitate towards hands-on learning. I try to make science as interesting as possible. These books and experiments will bring push and pull to an exciting new arena for them!

My Project

It's really amazing how forces work in the world. The ability to have my class realize just how often push and pull is happening, with actual hands-on learning, would be so beneficial. Science is an area where all of my students can feel as if they are on equal footing with their peers. Exciting and equality all at once? Now that's learning!

Many science topics go in one ear and out the other, but anytime we can incorporate experiments into their day makes it a memorable experience.

These science materials will be used for years to come, leaving a trail of involved learners in their wake!
