Help my students explore and challenge themselves by building and solving ways to make the mechanical toys work using reading and math. Students will use science to figure out how to make the machines work. Students will use cognitive thinking to read, listen and apply what they have learned. My students come from different diverse backgrounds and this will be a way to get them to share with each other and work as a team. I love to see my students express themselves through play as they learn from each other.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
