New teacher looking to enhance STEM for her Exceptional Scholars!

Funded Sep 20, 2019

First of all, THANK YOU! We have been extremely busy over the past few months enjoying our new classroom swag. One of the best parts of the STEM station has been applying science to learning, and having fun doing it. One of the first projects we finished was building a simple machine "Wiggle Bot." That sparked their interest. I was able to shape our next few lessons around growth mindset and team building. This went into helping my students understand that we needed each part of our team to get the next project done. It was a Hydraulic Crane Arm. They loved it, and it was highly motivating for them. As an Educator of exceptional kiddos, it can be difficult to find a project that each of them are interested in, and this one was spot on! We have turned our station time into an educational supplement using: Social Emotional Learning lessons, real world connections, relationship building and opportunities to showcase our growth mindset's. The entire donation package has truly changed the dynamic of my classroom. I can not thank the donors enough for their generosity. This has truly been a blessing to experience with my students. Stay kind, donors; Stay kind! :)”

With gratitude,

Ms. T
