Messy Hands, Big Learning!

Help me give my students interactive learning supplies and access to new ways of thinking and learning.

Ms. Corbitt Mountainville Academy
Alpine, UT Grades 6-8

My Students

My students are endearing, inquisitive, determined people and learners. They love, and learn best, through hands-on, engaging projects and lessons. They enter my classroom with smiles and questions on their lips. They are eager to learn both academic and life skills. They are the reason I am still teaching.

My students often can't grasp what is being taught simply through lectures or reading a book; that's why I fight to make every lesson engaging, personal, and interactive.

Every student in my class learns best in different ways. The need for differentiated learning styles and frequent collaboration with my co-workers helps me stay invigorated and enamored with teaching.

My Project

My students need hands-on learning to comprehend the world around them. They like different things, but I have chosen objects that will help all my students learn and increase their interest in everything they do. With the help of a globe, my students will understand how big the world is, and how we live affects other people. They will use science kits to understand natural phenomena that might otherwise scare them. Knowledge is the best cure for fear. These science kits will also fan the flame of their existing passion in their varied obsessions with knowing 'why'. My students also enjoy learning about the past, and how people lived so differently than how we live today. The Little House on the Prairie series, for example, has been on my students' wish list since August.
