My little learners are very curious about science and nature. The STEM materials in this project will foster their curiosity and encourage hands on learning. I would love for my students to learn more about life cycles and growing plants.
The live caterpillars and lady bugs will allow them an opportunity to watch them grow from beginning to end.
The terrarium will provide with them with a hands on experience to watch something grow from a tiny seed.
My little learners are like little sponges and they soak up so much information, and with the STEM materials their learning will be taken to another level.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
