My Project

Our classroom is a hub for innovation and exploration in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). As I strive to inspire the next generation of scientists, engineers, and innovators, it's crucial to ensure that students have access to the basic tools, materials, and resources. In lieu of treats and candies for Teacher Appreciation week, I would love to replenish supplies for the upcoming year.

STEM education is the cornerstone of preparing students for the challenges and opportunities of the future.

Through engaging, inquiry-based activities, students develop essential skills such as collaboration, communication, and adaptability. However, maintaining a dynamic STEM learning environment requires ongoing investment in equipment, consumables, and technology. With our current supplies reaching the end of their lifespan, these requested glue sticks, Velcro dots, chenille stems, construction paper as well as other supplies will ensure that my classroom remains a vibrant center for exploration and discovery at the start of next year. I am also asking for a Makey Makey STEM Kit from Joylabz for my students to use.

Renewing STEM supplies is essential to maintaining a dynamic and engaging learning environment for my students. With your support, I can continue to inspire curiosity, ignite passion, and empower the next generation of innovators to tackle the challenges of tomorrow. Together, we can make a lasting impact on the future of STEM education in our community.
