My Project

I have 22 eager, 3rd grade students. They are ready to explore and learn through STEM activities. Our school has started Project Based Learning. The goal is to see what interests kids and provide them resources and the guidance to create their own projects. My students are very interested in hands-on projects. They love to explore topics like, "How it's made!"

These materials will allow my students to read about engineering and building.

The books will allow them to research and understand the vocabulary and the process of designing and building structures. Then students will be able to design and build their own contraptions. Students will be able to use their own minds and create their own designs.
