My Project

My students love doing interactive projects with STEM-based activities. They get excited when they do "hands-on" projects in our creative maker space area. My students keep asking me to get more and new projects for them to do in the maker space area. They enjoy learning through these types of STEM activities. The students do not even realize how much learning they are doing during the STEM maker space activities - they just think it's a really fun and cool way to learn. I need more creative items to keep their curiosity and inquisitive minds sharp because we are a Title I school in a low-poverty area. These new resources, including the Voyager kit, construction kit, and LEGOs, will keep students engaged with exploration in the critical science, technology, engineering, and math areas that may develop our future great engineers and scientists of the next generation.
