Can You Make a Magnet?
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Fjeldheim's classroom raised $296
This project is fully funded
My Project
I love giving my students hands on experiences to explore in science. They become inventors, problem solvers, teachers, and teammates. When they have an exploratory project in their hands, they don’t consider it as homework. They take a different perspective and look at it as being fun. They do not realize they are learning from themselves and from their friends, as well as taking on a “teacher” role with their team. STEM projects give them the opportunity to be really involved with the learning process. My students look forward to completing science projects with their classmates.
This classroom project was brought to life by Maxwell/Hanrahan Foundation
and one other donor.
