My Project

Help me provide a STEM enrichment classroom where my talented innovative multi-age K-2 students will come to enhance their sense of wonderment and creativity! Using geometric magnetic shape tiles, play dough, and math materials, they will put their engineering and math skills together to design and build their prototypes. Students will be able to reinforce their learning about 2 and 3 dimensional geometric shapes. They will be expected to apply their math and engineering building knowledge to create a prototype that helps improve the living conditions for humans or animals. I am excited about providing this wonderful learning opportunity for my students!
