Help me give my students fun STEAM bins to use during free time and indoor recess.

My Project

I am so excited to meet my first class of first graders in a few short weeks! I am eager to get to know my students, but have been told they are bright, resourceful and a lot of fun!

Help me provide my students with engaging STEM bins to use in the classroom.

We will utilize these bins in the mornings, during indoor recess, and any other free time. First graders are notoriously crafty and curious and will enjoy using these materials to explore, play, and keep their minds and hands busy!
