Supporting STEAM in the School Library

Help me give my students library centers materials for learning, exploration, and joy.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Ramirez's classroom raised $744

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our school library is a dynamic place where students read, create, explore, and grow. The materials in this project will help students pursue their own interests and find joy working alone and with friends. Students will build bonds by making friendship bracelets and lei with the beads and yarn. They will create art with the Sharpies, Dot Art daubers, and sticker mosaics. Students will use their imagination while playing with kinetic sand and problem-solve using Cubelets.

Our goal is for all students to know they belong in the library.

Our students are unique and we want them to have the freedom to express this through independent and collaborative use of library centers.
