My Project

These STEM toys will be available to students in the morning, when they finish their assignment, and at the end of the day. I believe that children need ample time to explore with their senses, tinker with toys, and build with their hands.

These items will help my students become future engineers, designers, and explorers.

My students deserve to have equipment at the ready. Many of them gravitate towards building blocks and other types of building materials such as magnetic tiles and blocks, so having more for them to explore with will only benefit them. I am excited to see what they come up with and what they can accomplish using their brilliant minds!
