My Project

My students are the best. They work hard, love challenges, and enjoy working in groups. They are smart, loving, and kind. In our STEAM Lab, we work on many projects that require critical thinking skills and creativity.

My goal is to educate the whole child.

I believe that includes out side of the box, or curriculum activities. The materials that we are requesting we allow us to sew various items. We will build bird houses and feeders with the hammers. The cups will be used to plant seeds for the students to take home.

Grades 3-5
