STEM Projects for Amazing Students

My Students

I love that my students are determined, focused, and love learning. I do have students that need to always be moving when they learn. I have other students who need to hear the lessons and others who need to do the lessons by actions and moving.

I love when my students have the lightbulb moment.

It's when they understand a topic or example after not understanding things up to that point. Mostly in my math. My students, even when they don't understand the math, they do their best and end up actually enjoying the math!

I love that my students don't give up and they keep working!

My Project

The students will be able to build with the STEM sets and have to have a deeper level of understanding to create with their hands and their minds. Let's say a student is finished with their math assignment he/she can go to the back of the room and pull out the bridge creating STEM lab. This emphasizes that the students can do engineering, math, and create a unique bridge that is personal to that student.

This helps the students stay focused, learn new things, and create something they have never created before.

This can also be a much needed break for those students who can't focus and the STEM lab will help their brains get moving.
