My Project

I'm so excited to get back into the classroom with my students and see where this year goes! Classes will come to me once or twice a week to learn about STEM and figure out their favorite parts of the world around them. Teaching K-5 throughout the week means different skill levels. While some have experience with using basic classroom supplies, others are still learning how to use pencils, scissors, tape, and other things we might take for granted.

These adaptive school supplies will help my young scholars be able to focus on the STEM experience in our classroom instead of taking extra time to cut, tape, and write.

Pencil grips, loop scissors, masking tape dispensers, and other supplies will help my students be quicker at the basics, so they can reason and use logic, and have fun in the room. Kleenex, dry erase packets, pencils, and other materials will help us get our STEM Lab up and running for the new school year.
