My Project

This project will provide enough resources for two grade level wide STEM builds. The first being a mousetrap car competition. The second a bottle rocket mission to the moon. Learning will be energizing and engaging. Exercise in the form of running to retrieve your vehicles is a welcomed byproduct.

My first goal of this DC is to provide rich, engineering experiences, where students can use what is being taught in mathematics to solve problems.

A secondary goal would be to create multiple opportunities for students to work collaboratively with students from other classrooms.

All students are special in their own ways. The freedom to create made possible by Donors Choose makes their work special.

Mr. Kunihiro will only receive his materials if this project is fully funded by September 6.
