My Project

TIMEFORKIDS magazines motivate students to read. Reading about real-world topics is the it factor in having kid's understand and relate to their world, while building literacy skills. These magazines provide relatable, tangible evidence that learning is essential.

Our classroom can focus on both Science and Math.

Hands-on learning ideally inspires students to want to explore further learning across the horizons that STEM opportunities afford, thusly broadening, extending neurons on the highway of their brain. Having interesting, materials like science experiments will help all students learn new things and gain knowledge necessary for the 21st century.

I am trying to lay the foundations, that ignite students to want to become consumate life-long learners as well as helping them find their niche in the Sciences or other Academia.

My students are special. They believe in the hope that hard work pays off. Their vision boards are set for college or trade school. Focusing on STEAM activities with exposure to career and life possibilities helps all my students strive for success.
