My Project

This project contains items that will help improve the projects completed in our STEM class. This course is designed to expose students to various STEM careers and hands on experiences which mimic the roles of the professional in that field. In this way students get to experience firsthand what it would be like working in that field in the future.

With these items we will be able to create more projects for students.

They will build skills such as team work, critical thinking, creativity, and problem solving. My students will be forever grateful for you giving them the opportunity to expand their knowledge and appreciation of STEM!
