My Project

As a preschool teacher, I have the privilege of being a student's very first experience in school! It is a responsibility I do not take lightly! My school is in a low-income area, and I teach in an inclusive setting. Each year I am blessed with the most amazing students, however, with covid restrictions it has been harder to collaborate with families.

Not only will these STEM packs allow students to practice responsibility taking items home, but they will also provide countless opportunities to encourage family involvement.

Stem learning helps students build critical thinking skills they need to be successful in school and beyond! Each backpack will also come with a book, this will not only encourage early literacy skills, but develop crucial language development skills as well. Thank you for taking the time to look at my project! I am so grateful!
