Help K enjoy STEM!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Cavanaugh's classroom raised $442

My Students

My students are always encouraged by hands on projects. We love acting out our problems in order to solve them. It gets them moving and helps them to apply real world problem solving in our classroom. Many of my students need the physical acting out process in order to remember and succeed.

My students are from low income community that are eager to learn.

They work hard and enjoy school. I want to nurture and encourage their thought process. I need your help to do this. We need these materials to foster their problem solving techniques. Many of my students are not exposed to varied ideas on how to solve everyday situations. I want to prepare them for the real world. What they learn today, I want to make sure they will use these strategies in their lives tomorrow.

My Project

My students will be able to solve many everyday problems by using these products. The STEM bundle will help them act out the SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY and MATH problems. With this bundle they will be able to address areas which are in high need. Many students lack the problem solving skills needed in Math and Science. I want to make sure my students are prepared and show them how Math and Science can be fun.

The STEM bundle will help more than 25 students this year and many more to come.

STEM is an area which is not loved by many students. The bundle allows for new and entertaining ways in which to solve problems while enjoying the process. My kids will use these skills in school and in the real world.
