My Project

My students are creative individuals with an ever increasingly developing vocabulary. They are able to start the journey of being creative thinkers as well as problem solvers. Part of this journey includes creating models that will help the students better explain and understand what concepts that they should be learning at the specific place and time.

The LEGO Sets that I am requesting to be funded will help my students to be creative thinkers and problem solvers

LEGO Bricks- The LEGO bricks will give the students many opportunities to create visually the concepts that they will be learning in class.

LEGO Figures-The figures will help the students understand the importance of people and how they play an important role in any community

LEGO Baseplate- These items will provide a platform for the students to demonstrate their work.

I thank you for your time and consideration of my project request.
