Thank you so much for donating to this project! This Teachers pay Teachers gift card will allow me to purchase engaging STEAM activities for all the grades I teach. I look forward to adding downloadable resources I can use now and for years to come.
I find it very helpful to explore the TPT website for new ideas as well as activities that match picture books that I can add into our STEAM program. These "hands on" activities often include blueprints and journals that help my students grow and learn.
Thank you again so much for supporting the students that I teach.”
Thank you so much for helping to fund this project! It is so difficult and the expensive to maintain an ink supply for my students. This cartridge will help tremendously! It is high yield and will last for an endless supply of materials my students will need. Being able to print materials in my room allows me to individualize my instruction across all the grades that I teach. It gives my students quick access to what they may need. It also allows them to print research for a project or print a sketch design when working on a project.
I greatly appreciate your donation and it will continue to help my students into the next school year!”

Thank you so much for donating to this project! My youngest engineers are having so much fun with the "I can Build" Architecture set. They are exploring all types of structures and working with partners to turn their sketches into a buildings. This is an amazing resource that will engage my young learners now and for years to come.
My STEAM classroom comes alive with help from donors like you! My goal is to give ALL of my students a way to be creative and explore. You kindness is greatly appreciated!”

Thank you so much for donating to this project. My students love using the Blocks and Blueprints kits. My youngest engineers in Kindergarten and First grade are able to explore structures and sketch their ideas after building with the blocks. They continue to come up with amazing ideas!
As they try out their ideas, they can explore more challenging cards too. This has led to great conversation with their partners and I can see how much they are learning.
I know I will be able to use these materials for years to come and so many students will benefit from these kits. Thank you again so much for donating to my class.”
Thank you so much for donating to this project. My young engineers absolutely love playing with Lego Duplo. They are creating amazing structures and are able to collaborate and share with their peers. These materials stay together and allow them to sketch their creation. The bold and bright colors provide a colorful model when they are ready to draw. We take time to notice the shape, color and size while we are drawing.
I know my students will be able to enjoy these materials for years to come. Thank you again so much for your generosity!”

Thank you again so much for donating to this project! My students absolutely love the new bristle blocks! It is wonderful to watch them explore and build with something new. Their structures are more stable with these materials and they experimenting with height as well.
It is also so convenient to have them stored in the small cart with drawers that they can handle themselves.
I know I will be able to use these materials with students for years to come! Your kindness and generosity is greatly appreciated.”

Thank you so much for helping to fund this project. Your donation will allow my students to have access to print as needed and will also allow me to plan and prepare additional resources and materials for them. This will make our day run smoothly.
Ink is so costly and it is often difficult to provide. This project funded a high yield cartridge that will provide an unlimited supply of materials including blueprints and project materials. I look forward to the rest of the year and not having to worry about "low toner". Thank you again so much!”
Thank you so much for donating to this project. My students LOVE their new comfortable cushions. They can't wait to come in and select a spot in our meeting area. The cushions allow for some "social distance" and it allows them to sit comfortably too.
It makes group work so much easier because they can grab a cushion and move to a spot to work. They also can bring them to use on their chair at a table as well.
The cushions will be enjoyed by students for years to come and I am so happy to have them in my room. Thank you again so much for your kindness!”

Thank you so much for donating to this project! STEM Bins is an amazing resource that my students love! It allows them a "hands on" experience with a variety of manipulatives to create and build.
I enjoy listening in while students work with a partner to compare their blueprints and design ideas. This collaboration is so important in our class and it provides opportunities for growth for students of all grades. I look forward to using these materials now and for years to come. I know they will provide many hours of endless learning for my young engineers! Thank you again so much for your kindness.”

I am currently teaching in a STEAM position. I have been a Math/Science content specialist for many years and I am looking forward to this new adventure! I enjoy providing my students with fun and engaging activities each day. I always try to incorporate different strategies into each lesson to reach all types of learners. This could range from technology integration, math and science videos, group activities and inquiry-based learning.
