My Students

My students are curious, creative, and full of questions. They are gifted and talented students in grades 3-8 who have a passion for tinkering, creating, and discovering new things. These kids come to school eager to learn and enjoy activities that are hands-on, challenging, and allow them to think outside the box. I want to give them many opportunities to expand their knowledge base through trial and error, problem solving, collaboration, and practicing leadership skills to build a foundation for their future careers. These are amazing kids who want to try new things and add more wrinkles to their brain while having fun.

My Project

My middle school GT students need supplies and materials for STEM projects and electrical circuit projects. They are very curious and love hands on learning. My students need various size clamps, spools, dowel rods, hot glue gun, glue sticks, and twist ties for STEM projects. These supplies can be used for multiple projects. The Cardboard Box Engineering book will give students ideas to work off of- they can use what is in the book or make their own version of what they see. The lunch trays would be a great way to organize supplies at each table. This helps students have a space to transport supplies as well.

The rest of the requested items on the list are all related to electricity and circuits.

My students love to explore and these items will enable them to create their own circuits and learn from one another.
