My Project

My Multilingual students will spend 3 weeks this summer in Summer English Academy working on their reading, writing, and speaking skills making and using STEM solar robot projects. Students will write about the steps building the robots and then use their imaginations to create stories about what they have built. They will then practice their speaking skills by presenting their stories and projects. The snacks will help keep them fueled this summer as they create their projects together. Creating and environment with snacks and hands on STEM projects will keep them engaged and working hard. Our students have all immigrated recently and thrive in a supportive and fun learning environment where they can practice their reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills.

My goal is to create a fun, snack-filled, and hands-on learning environment where our new Multilingual students can work on STEM projects and their English skills and gain confidence.

We will use the robots to build our English skills by writing stories about them and describing the steps!
