My Students

In a room surrounded by animals and plants, my students enter our jungle of a classroom engulfed by science. The classroom is designed for exploration through research and learning, via hands-on activities. By the end of the year, I want my students to be at the forefront of a STEM education.

Each student is unique in his/her own way, which makes learning that much more special.

My students love learning about the ever-changing world of science, and are captured by the fact that every day brings new discoveries in science. The school is a welcoming environment, that encourages higher-level learning, while supporting the students at every step. The school houses over 1400 middle school students, who come from different ethnic backgrounds. In order to strengthen their learning experience, I want my students to utilize all the possible resources I can provide for them.

My Project

Students are often squinting to see the board and always ask to sit closer to the board. However, with a large screen and size 72 font, some students will struggle to see the board. My classroom is rather small, so seeing the board should not be a problem. Having eye exams to ensure students eyes are healthy and then providing them with prescription glasses will help students focus on learning. They will be able to read what is on the board, read articles without wasting time squinting and so much more. Learning should not be inhibited by our eyes.

My students are in a Title I school and come from homes where prescription glasses are not always the top priority on a monetary list.

These young adolescents should not be deprived of the opportunity to learn powerfully because they cannot see without glasses. Help me help my students see the world clearly!
