My Project

The STEM materials such as Lite Brite, Track building blocks, and Wooden Stick games will help develop my students in the following ways :

Skill Development: STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) materials help develop critical skills such as problem-solving, critical thinking, and analytical abilities.

These skills are not only applicable in STEM fields but are also valuable in everyday life and others.

Addressing Global Challenges: STEM education is crucial for addressing global challenges such as climate change, renewable energy, and sustainable development. By equipping students with STEM knowledge, we empower them to develop solutions to these pressing issues.

Interdisciplinary Learning: STEM materials often encourage interdisciplinary learning, allowing students to see the connections between different subjects and how they can work together to solve complex problems.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
