This hands-on STEM solution is a creative and developmentally appropriate form of engineering for elementary students. Students get excited with new activities and the teacher loves new ideas and teaching opportunities. Using manipulatives always brings a new excitement into a classroom. It challenges the advanced learner and helps the struggling student with being able to feel successful. I love that in this STEM kit Included are 22 different manipulatives to use with open-ended STEM activities with 16 storage bins. Students need more STEM time and activities. It also comes with 8 Challenge Yourself Cards that take structures to the next level, allowing students to improve and enhance their structures & 8 Writing Prompt Cards for literacy extensions.
