My Project

Using Mo Willems' *Pigeon* books in STEM engages my students in hands-on problem-solving, creativity, and critical thinking. This project supports learning goals by fostering engineering, sequencing, and scientific exploration in a fun, developmentally appropriate way. Students design buses, build catapults, test buoyancy, and practice coding skills, making STEM accessible and exciting. These activities align with early learning standards while encouraging curiosity and perseverance. My students are unique because they use imagination and collaboration to connect literacy with real-world problem-solving. By bringing Pigeon's adventures to life, they develop confidence as young engineers, scientists, and innovators, playfully
