STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics. My project will allow me to put together 12 different bins, each with a different task for students to complete that allows students to explore STEM activities. The materials in this project will provide the resources necessary to ensure students have an opportunity to explore STEM. According to the US Department of Commerce, STEM occupations are growing at 24% and STEM education creates critical thinkers, increases science literacy and creates the next generation of innovators. I want to give my students the opportunity to experience this exciting field! Students will use the materials in this project to build structures, create new places and objects and solve problems. It provides hands-on and minds-on lessons for my students. There are 12 different bins and each bin has different materials and task cards that ask the students to use only the materials in that bin to build a structure. A few examples of materials are small blocks, Legos, toothpicks, popsicle sticks, Play-Doh, pipe cleaners, magnet tiles, foam balls and straws. For added rigor, students will have specifications to work with such as only using 5 of a certain material, or making their structure a certain height. I will allow my students to use the STEM bins for morning work, early finisher work and for FUN FRIDAYS!
