My Project

I am currently a third grade social studies and science teacher at our elementary school in Washington, D.C. Our scholars are some of the brightest in the city! In science, we like to make science fun by participating in hands-on learning labs to understand real-life concepts!

Help STEMulate our curiosity and creativity with our STEM boxes!

STEM bins are a developmentally appropriate, hands-on learning activity that promotes problem solving, creativity, and practice with fine motor skills. Scholars are given a STEM-inspired, real-life challenge and then use the manipulatives to problem solve.
