My Project

In Kindergarten, students learn best through hands-on play-based learning. One of our favorite ways to do this is through our STEM morning bins. Every morning students grab a bin, over the course of two weeks rotating through all of them.

These STEM bins allow students to develop fine-motor skills, while also learning to work cooperatively with peers to complete a task.

These baseplates and blocks would allow students to have new stations to explore in their morning bins. The many pieces would allow them to construct animals, people, houses, rockets and more! The possibilities, especially to a Kindergartener, are truly endless!
