My Students

My students are bright, inquisitive, and eager to learn. I will be teaching STEAM to Kindergarten - 5th grade at a Title 1 school in Florida and 100% of our students will receive free lunch. We have a weekend backpack program to help our neediest families.

STEAM education is a new subject for our school and we need your help to establish lab equipment and engaging activities for our students.

Having fun is extremely important to help our students master Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math concepts.

My Project

I am requesting some Magna Tiles kits for our upper elementary students to build and engineer structures. I am also requesting a Zoob STEM Kit so the younger students can have various building activities to experiment with. I love that it comes with the activity cards so it is a ready-to-go activity. Both of these materials would be used for various projects throughout the year in whole group experiments and small group work. Students will have fun while learning the importance of STEAM Education.

Any donation to this project would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for considering supporting teachers, students, and our classrooms. Any amount would make us have a successful STEAM science lab.
