My Students
My students have greatness within them! They are full of destiny, opportunity, and hope. I am so excited to pour into them and lead the way for them to be successful in OUR classroom.
My mission is to create a community for each of my students that is loving, welcoming, engaging, and fun while equipping them with the education, tools, and resources necessary to steward them towards success!
Please help me make this mission a reality by donating to my classroom. I am truly invested in their success, and it starts with our classroom having everything that we need to achieve it!
Thank you in advance! I wouldn't be able to do this without your support and generosity!
My Project
Thanks to your support, I was able to get trained and certified in Tynker to teach my kids coding! While I was there, I was introduced to other Maker Activities to promote STEAM education, such as Makey Makey kits, linkages and Sphero. I was blown away with the ways that I can kick their learning up a few notches by making it hands-on and cool!
My heart's desire is to expose my second grade class to a fun, hands-on STEAM education by using Makey Makey kits and Spheros!
Being able to invest into my students by making science and math fun is not only my passion, but also my mission. With most of my students coming from impoverished and broken homes, I not only want to make my classroom a safe place for them, but also a fun, student-centered, engaging place where their education becomes a fun adventure.
Your support in this project will give me the materials necessary to introduce my students to STEAM education and to help them grow. We appreciate you and thank you in advance for your generosity!
