My students love hands-on-experiences that will prepare them to adapt to an ever-changing world. It has been predicted that many of them will enter jobs that do not yet exist. They know that now is the time to develop skills for a successful future. My students are innovative, creative, 21st century-thinkers and problem-solvers. They love projects that allow them to create and collaborate. They have the tenacity and ingenuity to find solutions to challenges both big and small. Together they are unstoppable!
My Project
Maker labs give students the space and materials to develop 21st century skills. With these craft materials my students will have the opportunity to apply math and science concepts to dream, design, and build prototypes. They will use the engineering design process to create solutions to real world problems. For example, they will construct ways to make useful items out of recyclable materials. They will also build simple machines and robots to solve problems.
Projects will be driven by students' interests in math and science.
They will experiment with building 3-D models of their creative ideas. All projects are hands-on and student centered. Students will develop the essential practice of critical thinking to make their ideas come to life.
