Full S.T.E.A.M. Ahead in Kindergarten

Help me give my students building bricks, paints, canvas, and other supplies to work through challenging S.T.E.A.M. activities.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Johnson's classroom raised $600

This project is fully funded

My Project

I love the natural curiosity and desire to learn new things that children have at this age. They fully enjoy the hands-on, I do side of what we introduce to them at school. S.T.E.A.M. experiences are a way to grow vocabulary, understand math and science concepts, and tap into generative thinking and problem-solving. I want to bring a higher level of interest and involvement into our math and science curriculum by incorporating a weekly S.T.E.A.M. activity. We will use the Awesome Science Experiment books, Kinetic Sand, glass jar, building bricks, Play-Doh, vinegar, salts, and other substances and materials to conduct the experiments and activities each week.
