My Project

My kids love coming to the library to read books, but they also love to come to create! Whether they are exploring materials freely, completing a challenge, or solving problem, they are full of curiosity. Some of these materials will help replenish some of the consumable materials in our space. The kits and Legos will allow us to continue to offer additional options in our fledgling STEM program. So many of these activities help students learn to problem solve and work collaboratively. We would be so grateful for these materials which would each and every student in the school more options in our space.
