Engage in STEM

Help me give my students the ability to explore STEM through hands-on materials.

My Project

I am looking to create STEM bins to allow my students to extend their learning in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. These bins will give my students a hands-on and creative approach to learning these subjects. I will use these bins for early finishers, morning work, makerspaces, positive behavior rewards, and indoor recess. Students will also learn collaborative skills as they work with other classmates to complete tasks within the classroom. These bins will encourage students to solve problems, use their imagination, and think creatively. My students do not regularly have access to these types of materials at home or in school and would love access to these materials on a regular basis.
