Once an iconic image of NASA, the now retired Space shuttles were an integral part of the NASA space program for more than 30 years. In this one time class we will learn about the Space Shuttles, how they shaped space exploration, and what they accomplished. We will discuss through a lesson, look at pictures and videos, and then your student will design their own shuttle through the engineering design process! We will spend a big part of class designing and creating our shuttle. Each child will create their own through their imaginations and their own creative design. Please make sure to have supplies for class so the children can create! This can all be created with things from around the house! Please check the supply list. This class is part lesson and part design and create. Children learn best when they can use their hands and imagination! Join us in this fun class! Please note, a design will not be sent to your student, they will completely design their shuttle using the things we will talk about in class. With their new knowledge, they will apply it to their own design.

I believe in igniting the fire for the love of learning and meeting children where they are at. I also believe the best way to learn is through play, hands on experiments, and having fun. My favorite things to teach are STEM, Math, facilitating safe gaming classes, and reading classes.
I attended University of Houston at Clear Lake and received my Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education- Young Children with Disabilities and my Master’s degree in Early Childhood Education- Children with Disabilities. I was the owner and founder of The Mind Body Lab, where I taught STEM, Art, and Yoga classes. I am also a private tutor.
I was the Assistant Director of Early Childhood camps for University of Houston at Clear Lake, and for 6 years I designed, developed, and implemented inclusive camps for young children. I have also taught a homeschool science classes at a local nature center, where I prepared lesson plans, wrote lessons that included STEM, and instructed an inclusive class.
I believe every child learns in a different way and the way I teach will reflect that. I plan my classes in a way where all learners needs are met, we do not all learn the same so I offer multiple ways to understand the subject.
I have homeschooled my children for the last 12 years. I am a first degree black belt and love everything martial arts!
My goal is to educate, include, enlighten, ignite, and help children explore this world.
