Economics and STEM Making Learning Fun

Help me give my students a Chomp Saw and sorted colored paper for an economics project.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Taylor's classroom raised $558

This project is fully funded

My Project

This project will make learning fun. Students will learn critical economic concepts related to production and how to make STEM journals. After attending a STEM and Economics workshop at Amazuem in Arkansas, I'm excited to teach my students how to create journals using a chop saw, paper cutter, and different types of paper.

Students will learn about economics and productive resources as they design and create journals.

Aim that this hands-on learning will help my students understand important economic concepts as they engineer and design a journal.
