Help me give my students the tools and toys to build and explore.

My Students

I have a group of twenty two amazing five-year-old Kindergarten students. We are located in a small rural district in northeastern Oklahoma. The majority of the schools in our district are Title I. Our community has a very high Native American population, as it is the home for nine Tribal Nations. Many of my students are experiencing being in a school setting for the first time. We are preparing them and building a foundation for them to continue to become successful scholars.

My Project

In today's society, we are raising students, and preparing them for jobs that haven't even been created yet. That is why STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art and mathematics) is so important in today's classroom.

My project is for Engineering items, my class needs hands on building materials.

We have asked for some Legos to build the future's buildings. We are asking for Design & Build Engineering Centers, they will be building the futures bridges, cars and houses. We are asking for Construction Planks and Blueprints to work on bringing pictures to life. We are asking for a Coding Ladybug to work on our future computer coding skills.

We are looking forward to getting these items, and in the hands of our students.
