My Project

The resources from this project will give my students opportunities to explore STEM in meaningful ways. With Plus-Plus blocks, magnetic blocks, pom poms, clothespins, Geostix, wooden stacking rocks, and headphones for online learning, they will be able to design, build, and test their own creations while also strengthening focus during digital lessons.

These tools will help students learn the value of perseverance, teamwork, and problem-solving.

Plus-Plus blocks will help students construct models, practice fine motor skills, and bring their creative ideas to life.

Magnetic blocks will allow them to explore balance, structure, and the science of force and motion through hands-on play.

Pom poms will be used in engineering and design challenges, encouraging problem-solving, estimation, and teamwork.

Geostix will allow students to explore geometry concepts by creating shapes, angles, and patterns while strengthening spatial reasoning.

Wooden stacking rocks will challenge students to experiment with balance, symmetry, and design, encouraging creativity and patience.

Headphones will help students stay engaged and focused during online learning activities, ensuring they can fully participate in digital lessons without distraction.

These hands-on materials will give my students the chance to think like engineers and scientists, while the headphones support their growth in technology-based learning. Each resource will spark curiosity, creativity, and collaboration—making learning both engaging and meaningful.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
