My Project

This year I have the honor of teaching an absolutely amazing group of sixth graders. These students come to class each day with big hearts and open minds ready for any challenge I have for them. They are excited about learning and take every task seriously. My students are engaged in hands-learning daily that gives them the opportunity to explore tools and techniques used in many different fields of the job market. Students will have the opportunity to explore clean energy technology using the solar panels and DC motors to convert energy that can help save our planet and provide a healthier future for their generation.
