My Project

After recently becoming a STEM-certified school, we are looking for more ways to engage our students and expand their thinking while looking at the big picture. In my classroom, I have a long table that would be perfect for a tinker station to hold all of our STEM bins.

Whether it is used for a center during classroom time or an early finisher, I think that these building blocks, gravity mazes, and magnetics, would be the perfect way to fill our STEM bins to add more excitement to the classroom.

After my first year having STEM bins, it has been such a joy and pleasure to watch my students finish their work early (and correctly) to want to grab a STEM bin to get creative. I think that having these new items for our STEM bins will continue to feed my students' hunger for wanting to do their work and get creative!
