STEM Us Out

Help me give my students STEM tools and brainteasers to evoke an excitement for learning and to provide enrichment and accelerated activities for students.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Wright's classroom raised $793

My Project

Many students need additional stimulation and acceleration in order to challenge their minds, build stamina, and increase the joy factor while learning. STEM tools offer a great opportunity to incorporate exciting and challenging activities in the learning environment.

Many of my scholars are smart and need additional challenge in a way that is reflective of intentional play.

Scholars will enjoy these activities while building stamina, analytical skills, problem-solving skills, and critical thinking skills as well as social and emotional skills.

Success and growth in these STEM and brainteaser activities, will increase confidence and help students improve personal discipline and develop good study habits. We also need a TPT gift card to purchase challenging and engaging lessons for differentiated learning.
