My Project
These STEM books will help increase overall STEM literacy, reasoning and critical thinking.
My goals are to plant the seeds that were planted in me: a love for reading.
My mom bought an encyclopedia set for us to explore at home. I will check these books out from the classroom library so that kids will learn to read and enjoy STEM topics at home. My students are open to learning and exploring. They still have that light in their eyes that shines when encountering novel ideas. With your help, my students will excel.
