My Project

The use of these STEAM materials will really benefit the innovation and creativity of my curious learners. I want to provide materials that will allow children to build and create new structures.

I hope that this will promote teamwork and problem-solving skills that they may not have used before.

With so much focus on academics at such a young age, I'd really like to give my young learners experiences and skills that they will be able to remember and use for the rest of their lives. I have really been interested in incorporating STEAM materials into our daily center routines.
