Everyone STEM!

Funded Dec 1, 2020

My students have been able to have equitable learning this year whether in person or working remotely. The materials you helped provide us were AMAZING and we can't thank you enough. Many times when students are working remotely they may not have the access to building materials or transportation to the school building to get a packet. Having the electronic building materials created a learning environment where all students were given the exact materials and it was wonderful how well they worked with them. One building project that was possible was the engineering of a leprechaun trap that had to incorporate a simple machine. Having these digital materials allowed students to choose any simple machine they wanted and helped them create extraordinary digital traps.

When my students first saw the digital tools we now had available they were excited both in person and at home. Covid hasn't allowed us the opportunity to share materials that I don't have a class set of. These digital tools allowed students more material choices since it was their very own digital set.

Hopefully next year we can get back to a more traditional school experience. Even if this is the case I plan on allowing students to continue using these digital tools because they are so engaging and educational.

This has been a wonderful experience and I can't thank you enough!”

With gratitude,

Mrs. Phillips
