STEM Resources for Preschool Learners

Help me give my students access to STEM experiences. Preschool is an opportune time to expose students to science, technology, engineering, and math to instill a love of learning, and exposure to higher level thinking.

My Project

With these materials, we want to expose our preschoolers to engaging STEM experiences to develop an interest in exploring and creating in the world around them.

Science promotes higher level thinking for students as they hypothesize on outcomes of experiments.

They explore the natural world around them and develop a curiosity and love for learning.

These math materials and games help children problem solve, measure, learn spatial awareness, and teach shapes, numbers, patterns and sorting. These are essential base skills to build on as they grow and develop.

Preschool is such an influential time, as it is children's first exposure to structured education. We aim to teach them to love school and carry that with them throughout the rest of their educational career.

Thank you for considering our project and our special education and general education preschool learners.
