My Project

Working at a Title I school has helped me understand how important giving students hands-on experiences with materials has on their understanding of the unit of topic. I have seen vast improvement of test, homework, and overall comprehension with my current sixth graders.

As I take a leap and move grade levels, I will need to update my hands-on materials, teaching resources, and games to better fit the 4th grade science curriculum.

The resources within this project are similar or the same to current hands-on teaching resources I use with my current students.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
