My Project

I am trying to build a strong STEM-based and interactive learning experience for my 6th grade science class. Utilizing whiteboards for interactive learning games, clay for hand-building models, STEM kits related to physical science, such as Motors, Electric Circuits, and Rollercoaster building while having healthy snacks available when students are hungry or rewarded for participation in interactive games, students will feel welcome, remain focused and engaged in their learning experience of physical science, the natural world, and earth sciences.

With hands-on and engaging materials, students will be able to grasp challenging concepts related to science while having fun!
