My Project

The requested kits would support small groups of up to six students at a time in my gifted and talented pull-out setting.

KEVA Planks are wooden building tools that inspire creativity as well as aid in the development of engineering thinking skills.

They can additionally foster skills in collaborative problem solving. The use of the KEVA Planks supports the learning and design process as well as spatial thinking and creative problem solving through engaging STEM challenges. Students will work together to communicate ideas, work through problems together, and think outside the box. KEVA Planks have come highly recommended by other GT teachers across the country. Through challenges that feel like play, students may be inspired to become tomorrow's greatest engineers and designers. Invest in our future creators today!

From the KEVA Planks website, "Inspire collaboration and engineering at the same time. Engaging projects make hands-on learning, creating, and experimenting an everyday event."

My students love a challenge and they love to create. These planks are the perfect tool to support those needs.
