My Project

My students really enjoy working three-dimensionally and those materials can be challenging to find or are too costly. If you have ever folded construction paper, you may notice that it does not hold the creases very well; origami paper is designed to be folded and hold its shape. We use crayons and Sharpies daily and they dry up and break quickly. Replacements throughout the year are essential for straight lines and control in drawing. The STEM activities will help my students continue to strengthen their brains with problem-solving and creativity in their spare time.

Mrs. Aguirre will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by August 23.
