My Project
My middle school students are amazing! I want to "Ignite their Intellectual Curiosity". They come to school ready to learn and put so much effort into everything they do. They attend K-8 that is made up of quite a diverse population. Due to the lower social-economic makeup of the area, they are limited to various STEM materials.
Your donation will bring STEM alive in our class with the water bottle rocket kit, the robotics kit, the egg drop kits and robotic coding books.
These materials will allow them to explore and enhance their learning.The Egg Drop and Rocketry kits will provide materials and guidance on how to engineer those devices successfully. The voltage meter will allow us to test the generator that we build using household materials. Every year, my students enter into various SECME engineering competitions such as Banner Design, Egg Drop, Water Bottle Rocketry and FPL Generator Build. The students even are able to create engineering drawings and banners that go along with their projects and theme. My students engineer these projects and compete with students all over our district.
We are living in the 21st century where STEM fields are a necessity and these materials would help me to better prepare my students for amazing careers.
The students will have hands-on experiences in building and creating vessels and devices from household materials that actually work.
Your donations will allow my fifth graders to have access to so many great educational resources that our school can't afford to purchase. These items will help captivate and engage my students during lessons. We need your help.
