With the STEM activities, my students will be able to get creative and solve real-world problems. These activities will be sure to grab their attention, help them become excited about STEM, and challenge them in different ways to prepare them with 21st century skills. I have not implemented STEM in my classroom, and this is a very exciting way to do so. The fraction and decimal activities are just what my 4th graders needs, as fractions are one of the most challenging skill for students to grasp without hands-on materials. You will help my students increase their academic achievement by working with materials that are not worksheets, which is one of my ultimate goals in teaching. They will be able to apply their learning after lessons and in collaboration with their peers. These hands on experiences are the visual representation that they need when learning the challenging concept of fractions.
