Within science class currently, students explore, investigate and figure out science phenomena through communication among peers and efforts in student led discussions. By integrating STEAM education, students will allow their learning to stretch across disciplines. By donating to this project, this will allow my students to improve upon their ability to learn science concepts through this creative STEAM lens and fuel innovation, spark creativity and allow for even more collaboration to occur. Throughout this whole process, I strive as a teacher to generate and create a positive classroom climate and am conscious about the unique and individual needs of all my students, including better visual aids, flexible seating and a more comfortable and engaging area to learn.
