Explore and Learn!

Help me give my students science, math, and art materials for STEAM activities in class.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Collins's classroom raised $510

My Project

At the beginning of the school year, my students are three and four years old. Having science, art and math materials on hand that they can manipulate increases their desire to explore and develop new interest in math and science.

Little people have a naturally inquisitive nature.

Why not use that to further develop math and science knowledge. Everyone knows that a little person's favorite word is "why!" With the "Design and Build Engineering Centers," they can explore to figure out why on their own. They can also use the "Texture Brushes" to express their inner feelings about what they've learned through exploration.
