My Project

These supplies will continue to enhance the educational classroom that I strive to create. For instance, the IPads will provide opportunities for students to conduct research, and use math/reading/science apps to improve their basic skills. Creating and building the Robot Crawlers will provide an opportunity for students to have exposure to what STEM is all about! Once built, we can use the robots to explore different tasks and document our data in our interactive science journals. The buzzers will have endless uses for interactive games, and add a fun spin to timed quizzes, and fact fluency. The Teachers Pay Teachers gift cards are a way to support teachers at the root level of resources needed directly in the classroom that possibly districts don't always provide. TPT always has extensive projects, task cards, and visuals needed to support all learners.
