Help me give my students replacement connector for the Strawbees Kit using sustainable materials.
FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Crabbe's classroom raised $967
This project is fully funded
My Project
We have an amazing Strawbees Kit the students can use to create their own inventions and creations, but the connecting pieces are very expensive. Being that the connectors are so expensive, I can't allow the students to take their projects home to enjoy.
With this Sustainability Station, the students will be able to create replacement connectors using recycled plastic to use in their creations which will ultimately allow them to take their creations home.
The materials they take home can be shared with their families. Students will then be able to disassemble and reassemble their materials into new creations.
This sustainability station will allow me to use the engineering kit across all subjects and all grades.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
