Many of my students face challenges in life due to poverty, unstable housing, and language barriers. Although life is not easy, my students are extremely positive, grateful, and happy children. Our school faces the same issues many other schools face in low socioeconomic areas. We strive to meet the basic needs of our students so they are successful in school. My students are amazing people. They are extremely motivated, positive, and honest.

My Project
My students need STEM and STEAM supplies. To continue working on projects, we need supplies such as glue,stickers, craft sticks, sentence strips, and cups. Unfortunately, I have run out of some of my STEM supplies. A donation of supplies with allow us to work on more STEAM projects throughout the year. STEAM projects are engaging for students. For some projects, students need to work collaboratively and some as individuals.
I have super scientists, terrific techies, energetic engineers, amazing artists, and magnificent mathematicians!
The students are writing, planning, creating, drawing, labeling, collecting data, and reflecting. STEAM projects challenge students to be creative, apply prior knowledge, research, construct, reflect, and persevere. New supplies will improve their school day by allowing STEAM and STEM projects to continue.
