My Project

As I walk towards my door to greet the many classes I see throughout my week I feel a special energy. Students from PreK to 5th grade eagerly wait to enter the STEAM Room. I try my best to provide them with resources to let their imagination thrive and their critical and problem solving skills grow.

However, the lack of resources takes away from equitable access to all my students.

They want to be hands on, but cannot to their hearts' content due to the limited resources I currently have. Many of the kits I have are DIY projects and homemade! The requested STEAM kits will inspire them to use their imagination to create, build and problem solve!
