My Project

My students are curious, creative, and eager to learn by doing. The Chompsaw will give them the opportunity to design and build structures from scratch, turning their ideas into real, tangible creations. While technology, like computer programs and 3D printers, is widely available, the hands-on skill of building with their own hands is becoming less common. This beneficial skill is one I want to bring back to the classroom.

With this Chompsaw tool, students will strengthen problem-solving skills, creativity, and confidence as they learn to plan, construct, and revise their work.

I believe every child deserves the chance to experience the pride that comes from creating something on their own. Your support will help make this meaningful, hands-on learning possible for my students.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
