My Project

My students will get a clear and clean space so that they're able to focus and learn more effectively. We have to make the best of what we have and take care of it so that we can all strive and progress.

By having the Elements of the periodic table in real life form, students are able to picture the meaning of each symbol and see how it relates.

This will be a visual site each day of class so that the students will constantly see it and have it embedded in their memory.
