The students in my classroom are energetic and excited to learn new things every day. It is such a good feeling to see the sense of wonder and genuine interest on my students' faces when I am introducing new topics.
My school is a large, public school within the city, serving many different backgrounds, religious beliefs, economic standards, and family dynamics.
We all enter through our classroom door and are part of a great team. The students love sharing what they have learned and what they know with each other as well as family members.
My Project
I have several good STEM resource books with fun projects that teach about engineering, robotics, manufacturing, and science. I am requesting simple items like tape, books, and craft sticks that help my students create these different challenges and projects.
My students are bright and inquisitive.
They would love to read the challenges and come up with interesting and new ways to create things. These children are our future leaders and I think that exposing them to these types of different STEM projects are so healthy and good for them.
Projects like these, help them to learn how to work together, listen to other ideas, give them hands on learning, and most importantly, give them opportunities to fail and try again! Productive struggle is so important to learn at an early age.
