My Project
My students learn so much through hands-on activities. This project provides them with materials to explore their senses in a variety of ways.
Students will be engaged by learning about the senses through activities that test their own.
The kits will allow students to learn about, test, and model their reflexes, as well as their senses of sight and touch. They will be fascinated by the optical illusions, color vision tests, and textures. These activities require experimentation, problem-solving, and critical thinking, building skills that students need. Hands-on activities like these help students to learn the concepts more effectively and cultivate their curiosity and critical thinking. The cart will be used for storage and distribution of materials.
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
