Future Engineers in the Making!

Help me give my students fun and engaging STEM kits as well as comfy library chairs!

My Project

These STEM kits will spark problem solving skills and collaboration skills while integrating subjects like Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics with my Kindergarten students! These fairytale favorites will engage them to build houses that can't blown by the Big Bad Wolf, a bridge to keep 3 goats safe, and a chair perfect for Goldilocks! They will also be able to help rescue Rapunzel, help the Gingerbread Man get across the river, and build a basket that can hold Little Red Riding Hood's apples! This is a great way to get my young engineers to come across a challenging situation and be able to find a solution by problem-solving, trial and error, and through hands-on learning!

My students enjoy building and getting creative!

The comfy floor chairs will be an addition to our library area for students to read and enjoy our books. The ramp kit will allow us to learn more about motion, friction, cause and effect that tie into our Science standard. Students will explore how different textures will affect the speed and momentum of the cars!
