My Project
Our kindergarten classroom is full of curious, energetic learners who love to explore the world around them. They come from diverse backgrounds and are eager to learn through play, discovery, and teamwork. Whether they’re stacking blocks, exploring patterns, or experimenting with motion, they are building critical thinking and collaboration skills that will serve them for a lifetime.
Help me give my students engaging STEAM toys like magnetic cubes, marble maze, engineering kits, and art-based math manipulatives that are developmentally appropriate and designed to spark imagination.
We’re also asking for durable, easy-to-use bins to keep each set organized, accessible, and ready for student-led exploration.
Each STEAM bin will provide a focused hands-on activity that students can choose during center time. The bins make learning feel like play—but with powerful academic and social-emotional benefits built in.
When students have access to open-ended STEAM materials, they begin to see themselves as creators, problem-solvers, and inventors. STEAM play encourages innovation, builds confidence, and nurtures a love of learning in the earliest years of school.
Help me give my students the tools they need to imagine, build, and discover—one STEAM bin at a time.
