My Project

My students are enthusastic about hands on learning. When I announce to my students that they will be making something for their lesson that day they are always so excited and eager to get started. Applying what we are learning in class in a hands on way is what makes learning come to life for students.

I want my students to remember what we are learning in class and the best way to do that is through engineering, arts, and other hands- on learning.

To accomplish this we need to have some fresh art supplies for the year. Our donors were so generous last year and helped my students to get new markers, colored pencils, whiteboard markers and other art and school supplies for the year. This year we need clay, oil pastels, colored paper, liquid water colors and other school supplies to help us start the year strong.
