My Project

The students in my classroom already have a love for STEAM activities. I want to continue to cultivate that love for them and this project will help me achieve that goal. All of these materials will be used to make STEAM bins for both independent use and group use. The bins will be used for storage. Each tool will be distributed into the bins for students to pick up and take with them.

Every student deserves access to high quality STEAM activities.

I love the love my students have for learning. I find them to be especially engaged during STEAM activities. Due to this project, they will be able to access these materials in both small groups and independently. This will create independence and build teamwork abilities in each student. Math, science, technology, art, and engineering are very important areas of study. I want to instill of love of these subjects at a young age to encourage students to become lifelong learners of these subjects.

Statistics show that students' love for STEAM develops at a young age. Oftentimes, however, there is a lack of access to well-rounded STEAM education. Help me beat that statistic by instilling a love of STEAM in more students and by giving access to a well-rounded STEAM education early.
