My Project

STEM lab classes create critical thinkers and increase science literacy. These supplies such as STEM kits with robotics and magnets will allow me to do just that, resulting in alternative ways students look at modern technology that advance and improve our daily lives.

Similarly, I am hoping to use the writing journals and art supplies to increase science literacy and enable the next generation of innovators.

With their new found sense of explorations, I hope their Innovation leads to new ways to see the world. This science literacy depends on a solid knowledge base in the STEM areas.
