My students need STEM activities! We need Legos, KNEX, and buildable circuits to create a maker space for students in the library.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Watts's classroom raised $360
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
Our school is a wonderful place to be!
We are an urban, 98% Free and Reduced lunch, 99% minority elementary school.
Many of them are unable to afford the items necessary for school, or any kind of special enrichment beyond the school day. Although they cannot bring some basic necessities with them to school, they do bring with them joy and a desire to learn each and every day! We want to take this joy of learning and expose them to different activities with the hopes of them finding what they want to do when they are adults.
My Project
We are trying to expose our students to different STEM activities while flexing their creativity muscles. We are requesting Legos so that students can be creative and build things they want to build and combine with other building sets. We are requesting KNEX so that students can work with pulleys, connectors, etc to get even more in-depth practice building and creating. Finally, we are requesting circuits so that students can complete circuit activities to better understand how circuits and electricity work. When combined with the activities we already have, we will have a variety of different STEM activities for our students to enjoy.
These activities will expose our students to a new world of possibilities for their future!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
