My Project

I love incorporating all types of science in our fifth grade curriculum. One topic that is always well received by students is anything that has to do with technology and engineering. I would love to be able to do several days worth of STEM group activities to allow students to learn while exploring.

Collaboration and technology are two of the life-long skills that students need to develop as they get older.

The students sit in small groups and this project will allow each group to get a STEM kit. We can build the items as small groups, which will allow students to learn and grow from each other.
