My Project

My students will be able to collaborate together as they create whatever inspires them in the moment with the varied STEM materials provided. Materials will be labeled and organized to make finding them and maintaining them easy for my first graders.

I am excited for the opportunity to provide hands on STEM learning for my students, with a variety of STEM activities that will catch the interest of every student.

My goal is to give students the chance for hands on learning and getting away from screen time in small groups, individually, during indoor recess or even for fast finishers.
