Menu of Possibilities: Hands-On Learning Through Food Trucks & Film

Help me give my students carts, LEGOs, a color printer, poster board, and paper. Students will use these materials to "run” their own food trucks and create stop-motion videos, combining creativity, technology, and entrepreneurship in hands-on projects.

My Project

My students are eager to bring their creativity and career dreams to life through hands-on projects in Technology and Digital Media. This project will fund essential materials for two exciting units: creating stop-motion animation videos and developing a food truck business.

The project-based materials requested will give students the opportunity to connect technology, art, and business in a fun and meaningful way.

The carts will allow students to transform classroom spaces into realistic food truck stations, where they can “sell” their menus during lunch. Play food will be used for both our stop-motion animation projects and as props for the food truck presentations.

A color printer will allow students to print their food truck logos, menus, and branding materials in full color—something they currently cannot do since our school has limited access to color printing. The poster board and paper will be used to design menus, create stop-motion backgrounds, and build realistic scenes for their projects. LEGO bricks will serve as a creative medium for students to animate cooking scenes and learn the basics of frame-by-frame animation.

With your support, students will be able to experience real-world applications of technology and digital design. These projects will help them explore potential careers in graphic design, entrepreneurship, video production, and marketing—fields that are often hard to imagine without hands-on experiences.

Your donation will give my students the tools to dream, create, and bring their ideas to life—one food truck and one frame at a time.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
