Inspire Creativity for our Award-Winning OM Team

Help me give my students the tools they need to be successful in their Odyssey of the mind team. Help us stock our Odyssey closet with essential tools and supplies to practice solving unique open-ended problems.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Hooley's classroom raised $683

This project is fully funded

My Project

The following items: stem kit, twine, cups, toothpicks, straws, felt, pipe cleaners, pom-poms, and silverware will be used weekly for the teams hands on and verbal-hands on spontaneous solutions practice. These spontaneous problems allow the team to develop teamwork and problem solving skills to find a tangible solution.

These students work hard all year long creating a solution to a long term problem to compete at the regional, state, and hopefully world level!

These supplies will help them design and create: paint cups, paint brushes, balsa wood, cutting mats, hot glue gun mats; along with tools to organize, and transport: cart and wagon will help throughout the year in building their props while further developing problem solving and team building while building confidence in public speaking, budgeting, and time management and bridge the gap between engineering, making, and dramatic performance.

They will compete this year in the areas of Performance and Structure Building.
