My Project

The way students are taught is changeing for the better. Education is leaning toward hands on projects. These solar projects will allow the studetns to hold and physically see a solar panel. The students will get to actually wire the devices.

My students are from low income families and are not exposed to a lot of positive learning outside of school.

The students will be able to a model house and wire it with lights, using solar panels. They will be able to make clothes that can light up and display their artistic side.
