My Students

Students in the "Highest Poverty" category often do not have opportunities to follow their dreams. I am all about making the impossible possible and their dreams for the future an obtainable reality. My students come from countries around the world. They have traveled from Africa, Asia, South America, and across North America as children of refugees and families that move frequently due to low income earning ability. The unique, and difficult, experiences of my students are what make my students some of the most powerful and determined young minds you could ever hope to meet.

My students have experienced adversity.

In our classroom we rise above it. My students are resilient, brilliant. They have incredible leadership abilities. They help each other and understand the power of teamwork. We build a classroom community, and care for each other. When one student succeeds they all celebrate the success achieved by their classmate. These bonds are forged with time, shared tribulation, and the universal truth that every single student in our class has enormous potential.

My Project

Our students will greatly benefit from using the requested STEM Bundle to learn hands on science, and a variety of instruments to extend mathematical problem solving through patterns. I truly believe that deep understanding of these two subjects occur most naturally when students are allowed to experiment and uncover our learning objective through hands-on experience.

Imagine using a STEM Science kit for the first time, or discovering mathematical patterns using musical instruments!

Math and Science can be made fun and easily understandable when students use hands on materials and musical instruments! Please consider funding this project as it will help make difficult concepts truly enjoyable! Thank you for your consideration!
