My Project

My students love to build and create when they visit the library. They know the library is the place to go to explore their creativity. Their imagination knows no bounds.

With these K'nex kits, students will be able to build with purpose to develop a better understanding of structure and function.

In addition to free play, these kits can be integrated with collaborative lesson plans and Storybook STEM activities, bridging connections between science and literacy. I also want my students to see how they can apply what they learn in school into real-life applications.
