My Students

My kids are fun, serious, interesting and challenging. Each has a unique way of learning, communicating, and excelling. They are hard working and keep up with my high expectations. We are a blended learning class for ELLs. They are always engaged and eager to learn beyond the books. They accepted the challenge and are excelling. They love working together and completing objectives.

STEAM challenges gets their attention and motivation.

Our school is a place where students can get the support, encouragement, and the inspiration to be successful! Our classroom family is faced with academic, social, and emotional challenges every day but the drive for success overcome any challenges. Our classroom is a place where technology, creativity, risk-taking and project-based learning is used to succeed.

My Project

Thames & Kosmos The Big Engineering Makerspace and SmartLab(r) Aftershock Earthquake Labtm Kit will continue to enhance our STEAM classroom that I strive to create. My classroom is a place that my students really enjoy hands-on experiences!! These kits will give my students opportunities to enhance their learning at a new level.

With Thames & Kosmos The Big Engineering Makerspace and SmartLab(r) Aftershock Earthquake Labtm Kit, my students will be able to choose how they can bring to life their creations and allow them to explore engineering independently with their own creativity.

It will also allow them more options to use in order create new products and ideas to solve real-world problems. My students already have shown an astonishing interest in engineering and this project will only help enrich their experiences.
