My Students
My kindergarteners are amazing! They come from broken homes, poverty, and sadness! But when they walk through the classroom door, all of that gets set aside and we become one!
My five-year-olds are eager to learn, curious, and energetic!
Most have never been to preschool before and this is the beginning for them.
In those hours we are together each day, we dream of being doctors, astronauts, football players, singers, teachers, etc. They know the world is theirs! We might be a low-income Title I school, but inside my classroom walls, we are powerful and can do anything!
My Project
These fairy tale STEM kits will bring literature to life for my students while they work collaboratively with other students solving real world problems with critical thinking skills.
My students will learn to work together to solve real world problems using critical thinking skills.
Students will gain skills to help prepare them for the real world. These skills will help them succeed in school as they move from grade to grade. Girls will become excited about math and science and will no longer shy away from these areas.
Our world is changing so quickly. Technology has become part of all of our day to day lives. This is only going to keep increasing. Students need to be prepared for this world. They must know how to solve problems and to think critically. These kits will get my kindergartners on the right track.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
