My Project

My students love STEM class. All elementary students come to STEM class once a week to learn about science, technology, engineering, and math. We are a Title 1 school with a majority of students qualifying for free/reduced meals. Our students come from a poor, rural community and have very limited experiences.

Picture books open up a world of wonder for our students.

These books spark creativity, inventiveness, and desire in our students. Please help me provide the spark for them to become the architects, creators, and problem solvers of the future.

Grades 3-5
