My Project

STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) education offers students numerous benefits. The STEM fields drive innovation and technological advancements, developing new products, services, and solutions that improve our quality of life.

With your assistance, we would like to have the opportunity to complete several creative magnetic projects to help keep students engaged in STEM.

Our STEM activities will include completing magnetic puzzles, making magnetic slime and magnetic sensory jars, and exploring the science of candle making. We encourage our students to foster critical thinking and problem-solving skills to assess information and make informed decisions based on evidence. STEM education offers many personal, societal, and global benefits, contributing to progress, innovation, and a better quality of life.
