My Students

My students are fifth graders from low-income immigrant families. They are English Language Learners. All of our students qualify for the free meal program. We are a Title I school, as well as a Performance Improvement school.

Many of my students are struggling to learn and understand English with no help from their parents.

We have a lot of latchkey kids who go home every day alone and sit and watch TV. Thus, my goal this school year is to give my students lots of opportunities to explore and create wonderful things with their creative minds.

My Project

Students today are not interested in playing with toys such as Lego sets. Unfortunately, all they want to do is be in front of a device playing video games or watching YouTube videos. My students need to play with puzzles, blocks, Lego sets, or other toys that can teach them how to develop learning habits of inquiry and critical thinking skills which are very important for STEM and future careers in STEM. Therefore, through your donations of building sets, I hope to give my students the opportunity to play with different STEM games that will support this learning such as build problem solving, teamwork, communication, and creative thinking skills.

Your donations of the building sets would allow students to recreate and look a little deeper into what it takes to build these structures.

They will definitely understand the importance of math, science, and technology that is needed and used in daily life, thus, building our future.
