Help me give my students the opportunity to expand their Gifted and Talented curriculum with additional resources and hands on experiences. These items will supplement my lessons on flight and aerodynamics and link with the study of weather.

My Project
These sources will be used to supplement my lessons regarding the origins of flight aerodynamics and space exploration. Following changes in curriculum due to the COVID-19 pandemic, I was unable to continue teaching specific courses align to our gifted and talented program. After offering gifted and talented electives on non school days, I am now able to reintroduce this material to a full time class as part of the regular curriculum. We need to build a repository of classroom materials and hands on items that allow our students to learn and to become inspired as future leaders in aeronautics and space.
