My Students

Do you know what makes our school the best place in the world? Other than the rock star teachers and creative little learners, it's the community that surrounds us. It's our classroom community, our school community and our small little community where we all live and support each other. The students on our campus come to school excited to learn about and explore their world every day!

Our school really is a tight-knit family.

That means if we need something, we work for it. If we make a mistake, we learn and grow from it. And if we can make our learning more meaningful and fun, we do it! Nothing can stop us! (Not even Hurricane Harvey could slow us down! We are Wildcat Strong!)

My Project

We are requesting the Lego WeDo 2.0 Core Set so students will be able to engage in scientific and engineering projects encouraging them to use digital tools to carry out investigations, build and program models. Students will use the WeDo set to activate motors, lights, sounds or to react to sounds and movement.

My student love to work on projects and with the Lego WeDo Core Set, they will surely be inspired to become the next scientist or engineer to solve some of the today's current challenges.

With the WeDo 2.0 projects, students will be able to ask questions and solve problems by using models they design, design prototypes and investigate how they work, and analyze and interpret data that uses complex thinking.
