My Project

As the end of another productive learning year ends, we want our students to have some final educational experiences in STEM. We would like STEM kids for robotics where students will learn engineering concepts as well as have hands-on building experiences. We also want to create a special space to enhance the community!

A Kindness Rock Garden is a beautiful way to spread positivity, promote community engagement, and encourage acts of kindness.

This project not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of the environment but also fosters a sense of connection and empathy among our school community.

We will be using the paint pens to paint the rocks and share our positive messages.

Mrs. Scala PS 18 Winchester Grades PreK-2
