Range in grades from Kindergarten through 6th grade. They come from all different socioeconomic backgrounds; from living without a home to living in a mansion on the beach. There is a mix of races and religions and a variety of languages, thoughts and ideas. But at our core we are all life long learners.
Some of us are surfers and skaters, dancers and dreamers, writers and readers, mathematicians and scientists, thinkers and tinkerers, we code and create, imagine and explore, we make music and we make art and above all we believe we can make the world a better place.
We believe our differences and diversity will make us stronger. And at school we practice kindness and understanding.
Some of the students here will grow up to be doctors, and lawyers. Some will be athletes and celebrities. Others will be teachers and trades workers. And some will work in jobs that are yet to exist. Students here know that while at the moment they only make up a small percentage of the population, they are 100 percent of our future.
My Project
Our students are excited to start creating and designing in our new Makers Space. We have a 3D printer and carver, but are missing some basic tools and supplies to help get us going. The tools requested will help us to start designing and inventing with recyclable materials.
In our class we are learning about the engineering design process and how to look at the world through inventor eyes.
We want the opportunity to build and explore and to create and see our designs and dreams come to life. The tools requested will help us cut, shape, glue and transform cardboard and other materials to build and design.
