Engineering the Future

Help me give my students the tools to become innovative engineers: levers, pulleys, gears, and building sets.

My Students

My fourth graders are fueled to learn and high energy. Having resources that can accommodate those needs is essential to reaching learning goals. Some students learn best from teacher involvement but others may need a more independent outlet.

Looking forward to an energetic year, I appreciate any opportunity to support these kiddos.

By donating to our room, you are allowing all forms of learners to engage to their highest abilities. Whether they are kinesthetic learners or learn best from hearing or watching, all learners deserve the best supports offered to them!

My Project

I've said before and I'll say again, I have an energetic bunch this year! By giving them an outlet that's both creative and academic, they can focus their energy on something stimulating and interesting.

Building and engineering are incredible chances for a student to grow their imagination and learn to solve problems or adjust as necessary.

Using tools like building sets to coax students to try new things and become inventive will not only work as an academic outlet but might also become an inspiration for their future as learners and creators in a world that is always advancing and changing.
