My Project

Teaching STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) concepts to my kindergarten children is crucial because it lays the foundation for critical thinking, problem-solving, and curiosity at an early age. These subjects foster creativity, develop fine motor skills, and teach them to think critically, setting them up for academic success.

At this developmental stage, children are naturally inquisitive, and introducing them to STEM activities will help nurture their sense of wonder while encouraging hands-on learning.

Engaging in simple STEM lessons with accessible materials, such as magnetic tiles, or basic tools like toner for printing, also helps young children understand the practical application of these subjects in the world around them. Even something as simple as trays will help us create a positive attitude towards STEM learning and exploration. Your donation will help MY students become successful adults in OUR future!
