My Project

My class is completing a weekly STEM project to encourage creative, problem solving skills. So much of our required curriculum takes the creativity out of their hands, this is one place I can give it back to them. These materials will help me implement the projects I have planned for the remainder of the year. We need simple items such as mini flashlights, counters, playdough and more.

My students flourish when given the freedom to think critically.

STEM lessons keep them engaged and they get so excited to see what their new challenge is each week. And I love seeing what they create!
