Investor
Thank you to the following investor for funding this grant.
Hillsborough Education Foundation - $241.35
Project Goal
The goal of my project is to use math and logic-style games during my gifted classes' STEM time to enhance critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and creativity while promoting collaboration among peers.
Category
Learning Aids - Sunshine state book sets, robotics kits, puzzle boards, science models, engineering supplies, etc.
How Project Benefits Students
This project will benefit the students by making learning more engaging and improving the students' problem-solving skills. This project will provide math and logic-style board games for my students to use during STEM time (two 30-minute sessions each week). I plan to use these materials all year long. Since these materials are non-consumable, they will be available for many years.
Expected Outcome(s)
The expected outcomes of this project would be an improvement in students' problem-solving skills and abilities to work collaboratively and communicate effectively. I will give the students a pre-test before using the materials and a post-test at the end of the year. I expect students' scores to increase by 15% and their cooperative skills to improve as well.
