My Students

These students are excited to learn, and they are full of creative energy. My students love projects and activities that promote real-world learning experiences, and that is how we learn best!

We want exciting classroom supplies that make learning fun, engaging, challenging, and applicable to our lives as teenagers!

We live in a rural, high-poverty area, but we are constantly working to learn more about the world, economics, politics, history, and finance. Help us continue to have amazing and exciting learning experiences!

My Project

When teaching history, it doesn't have to be just words in a book. Let's get out the Legos and actually BUILD HISTORY, right within the walls of the classroom! When talking about historical architecture, historical inventions, historical locations, and history itself, let's get creative and hands-on and build history while learning about what came before us.

Legos and history come together in this project to give students the opportunity to actually build historical buildings and places within the walls of the classroom, using Legos to transport us through time!

Why does historical have to be just a textbook? It doesn't! That's what Legos are for!
