Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

In our science class, my students love to engage in hands-on activities. This year I would love to incorporate a STEM corner in our classroom to better support their love for exploration and discovery!

STEAM education allows students to apply science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics in their everyday lives.

With the manipulatives requested students will be actively engaged in problem-solving, engineering, designing, and constructing projects with real-life connections all while developing a sense of growth and responsibility for their learning.

Help make our STEM station a reality while fostering the joy of learning.

Ms. Thomas
Grades 3-5
