My students need building materials such as Legos and K'Nex. They also need Little Bits electronics kits to add motion to their designs.

My Students
Science is all about curiosity and pushing the limits of our current knowledge. I try to have my students do this every day in my classroom, while also having fun!
My students are kind, curious, and hard-working.
They love to laugh and have fun, and have such a carefree attitude! My students ask great questions and are always wondering about the world around them. Our school tries to foster a safe learning environment where every student can reach any goal they set for themselves.
My Project
I would like to start a makerspace club for the students in my school. A makerspace is a place for students to design, engineer, explore, and create. Using the Legos, Littlebits, and K'nex I am requesting, students would be able to use the scientific method to invent, build, and test anything they want! They will even be able to add light, sound, and movement for an added dimension to their inventions!
By having a safe creative environment, students will be able to foster their love for exploring and engineering.
Hopefully this will help these students discover more about themselves and their various Science and Engineering-related interests.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
