My Project

While my students may not have the material items as others, they make it up with their aloha spirit. They love to learn, but some do learn differently. Hands-on activities will give some of my students the opportunity to apply demonstrate what they know. A Maker Space Center is the perfect place to utilize this learning style. Maker Space projects will enable my students to work in small groups where they'll have to practice their communication skills, which a life skill required in real-work time. They'll also have to demonstrate perseverance to complete projects.
