Excelling Through STEM

Help me give my students the opportunity to explore the world of STEM with materials that encourage higher-level thinking.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Hayes's classroom raised $1,026

This project is fully funded

My Project

Many of our students missed opportunities to challenge their minds during COVID-19. The materials I am requesting will provide challenging opportunities to further advance our gifted students. From advanced technology such as the Oculus to simpler materials like brain teaser puzzles, all of these materials will challenge students to become problem solvers on their own. Students will use higher-level thinking skills to navigate through a variety of tasks that will be created with the requested materials. Please help us continue to challenge our gifted students and further their abilities through STEM!
