My Students

My first grade students are eager to learn and full of life. They live in a small town, where everybody knows you and is always willing to lend a helping hand. It is the kind of community and school that inspires you to teach.

We are in a school that contains Pre-K thru 8th grade.

My first graders love their school and it shows every day. We would love to continue our learning and be the best that we can be, with your help.

My Project

By adding more STEM materials such as Magna-Tiles, gears, marbles and brick building, to our STEM cart, we will turn our regular classroom into an amazing classroom. We will build and create and use the STEM materials to immerse ourselves into hands-on inquiry and open-ended explorations.

Teamwork will be essential to our STEM explorations.

What better way is there to learn to solve problems together as a team? It will be a real learning experience, listening and considering our team members solutions and deciding as a team what works best.

By donating to our project, you will be helping shape the minds of our youth, who are our future. Thank you so much for your help and generosity.
