My Project

These resources will be used to help students achieve their academic goals. By having STEM materials such as waffle blocks and magnetic tiles, my students can take their learning and apply it with hands-on experiences. Many of the students at my school benefit from hands-on experiences, and by having these materials, they will have these chances.

Not all students can provide their own school supplies, like pencils and pencil boxes, so with this, students will be given all the resources that they need for the year.

This can be beneficial to students to allow them to feel included and involved in the classroom. These supplies will also be important for making sure students get their work completed and can succeed.
