My Project

Young minds are always growing and my kindergarten students could use some STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) manipulatives to help develop their problem solving skills as well as their critical thinking and conceptual learning. In addition to this these manipulatives would encourage verbal communication amongst the students.

While participating at a STEM station students will take part in meaningful play.

Learning how to determine what would work best to build the perfect tower or what blocks to use to complete a castle will help to promote their problem solving and discussion skills.
