My Project

My students are so special because they are so curious! These games will bring out their curiosity even more!

I plan to use these materials and games to help my students solve problem's.

In my title one school, children have limited resources. Games, STEM engineering kits, pattern matching games and puzzles will open their eyes to more opportunities of things that they don’t have at home. Being a school of mostly Hispanic. Many children have IEPs and struggle to learn. Games help to bridge the language gap and bring smiles and friendly competition to all. My students love to learn my doing!
