My Students

My students are awesome! And I mean that in every sense of the word: both the exclamation that tells you they are unique and great young adults and the original meaning of inspiring awe. I see this awesomeness every day in my classroom!

My students are discovering their abilities as scientists and leaders and creators and inventors every day.

I teach three different science courses at a performing arts magnet school and want my students to have the resources to integrate all of their talents into STEAM projects.

My Project

We will use this littleBits STEAM kit to get hands-on experience with electricity and circuits - key concepts in physical science. It will also allow us to get creative and explore the intersections of art, science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.

Connecting art to STEM to make STEAM will help my students leverage their interests and make deeper connections to the science content they are learning in my classes.

This littleBits kit is amazing and will eliminate the hassles commonly associated with learning about electronics like stripping wires, faulty circuits, and soldering. They are intuitive, safe, and fun tools for tinkering, exploring, and learning.
