My Students

My students are such hard workers, and they love to learn and play. I have students with a variety of personalities and backgrounds. I have a bunch of kids who are excited to come to school so that they can learn new things. Students are eager to have fun, as they are learning.

My students are superheroes!

I am so amazed at how the students in my class love to learn. Students ask in-depth questions and look for ways to solve problems every day. My students love using technology when available.

My Project

This project has many fantastic science materials. These materials make it so that students will be able to observe the things that they are learning in science.

Hands-on science can help students understand important science concepts.

The Digital Microscope, with a flexible arm observation stand, will allow students to look at matter close up.

The Advanced Professional Rock Tumbler Kit can show students how rivers change rocks.

Tweezers, eye droppers, and chopsticks are tools that can be used to show how bird beaks are important.

The hair blow dryer is a safe way to show students that matter changes with heat.

Hands-on science can be so important for students to learn.
