My Project

The demands placed on young learners are very rigorous. I want to add some play back into school but keep it STEM related.

My list contains STEM activities to reignite student curiosity!

I want to start our mornings with educational play time where students can socialize with their classmates and explore different STEM activities that pique their interest.

I believe by giving students the opportunity to place and talk, our mornings will start off with less escalations and get students in the mindset to learn! Students need to be reminded that not all learning looks the same and we can have fun while we do it!
