My Project

Physics can seem too difficult or not fun for all students.

During recess, students will race Slinky's, engineer gear sets along with gravity wheels, all of these toys give students the chance to see physics in action.

With a classroom set of Slinky's each student will have the opportunity to design their own track to maximize the Slinky's trajectory.

Creating with the other items builds patience and focus. Painting is peaceful but also gives students a chance to create. The students can work together away from a device and build communication skills. I want to give kids the opportunity to learn and have fun.
