My Project
I will have the opportunity to create a unique, challenging and engaging classroom for non traditional learners who have not been successful in the general education setting. These students are smart and want to succeed. My plan is to use the book Physics, the Waldorf Way, a manual for teachers to engage their students through their senses.
This project's goal is to obtain all the materials and equipment to bring phenomenon to life, right before the students' eyes.
The science includes the study of sound, light, heat, magnetism, and electricity. We will be creating a song through the use of water filled wine glasses, completely darkening a room, working with prisms, experimenting with conduction and convection, cracking marbles, making a compass, experiencing static electricity. All of the materials requested in this project will be directly related to the exploration of these phenomenon.
More than half of 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
