STEM: Building and Inspiring

Funded Jan 12, 2021

Thank you so much for funding my project and giving my students to opportunity to get hands on with their STEM learning. The toothpicks were an excellent addition to my classroom because the students were able to build the toothpick bridges they designed on paper. Toothpick bridges teach my students about engineering and about cause and effect. When my students start building, they almost always realize what needs to be changed and what will work best.

My students were very excited and shocked when we unboxed all of the materials. They could not believe that strangers would be so kind to us, just a small school in Ohio.

My students are currently working on coding robots. They are excited to maybe enter into competitions next year.

Again thank you so much for this gift, it has really made a huge impact in my classroom!”

With gratitude,

Ms. Laman
