My Project

In our classroom, students thrive when they can bring their ideas to life through hands-on STEM projects. To support their learning, we need labels, markers, and folders—simple tools that make a big impact. These supplies will help students plan, organize, and present their STEM investigations clearly and creatively.

Students will use folders to collect data, diagrams, and research notes for projects like building simple machines, designing eco-friendly structures, or exploring circuits.

Markers will help them color-code ideas, label diagrams, and highlight key concepts. With labels, students can tag materials, track steps in the engineering design process, and stay organized as they work in teams.

By supporting this project, you’re helping young scientists and engineers build not only projects—but also confidence, creativity, and collaboration skills that will last a lifetime.
