My Students

My students are excited about cars and are eager to learn about how they work and what makes one model more exciting than another. Please help us to become the best car buffs ever. I want my kids to know all they can about the workings of a car so they can take care of their own.

My students are middle school boys and girls who attend an engineering magnet school in Florida.

These students came in to car club talking about cars but are eager to learn how a car works and how to take care of them. I think that is a valuable skill for them to gain. They formed the car club and I want to help them make it a big success.

My Project

I am requesting car magazines, books about cars and engine models so that I can help make the kids understand about the car, its parts and the latest models on the road. My students will learn how a car works, the parts of the engine and the differences in the different models on the road today.

Please help us make our car club a big success.

These students really want to learn about cars, what the different types are, what makes them different, how an engine works and how to work on cars.
