My Project

Hello everyone,

Recently our department has a

adopted a new curriculum that has STEAM activities embedded into the curriculum but as teachers we have to buy the supplies with our own funds which can be expensive. Please help me provide my students with the opportunity to tap into their critical thinking skills by funding our project! It would allow me to embed more STEAM activities into our classroom. These activities will also allow my students to work together to increase their communication skills to create the wonderful things that these activities provide.

Ms. Amanda Ochwilla Elementary School Grades PreK-2

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.
