Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

I am teaching STEAM classes with students in grades 2nd to 5th. The materials, or kits, I am requesting are to give my students the opportunity to get hands-on activities they can learn with. Imagine walking into my third grade STEAM class and seeing students working in groups using the Paper Circuit Kit to engineer and build circuits. Or walking into my fourth grade class and see students working building balloon cars to race down the hall.

These materials will give students the chance to explore and be creative while learning about various subjects.

Students love working with hands on materials and this kits will do just that.

Mr. Russell
Grades 3-5
