My Project

A few times per week, our class's play area is on the blacktop. Right now they have sidewalk chalk and jump ropes to play with but I know their imaginations can do so much more.

Help me give our students creative and engaging STEM activities to do during recess and outdoor time.

I would love to supply our students with creative building items. I've seen what they can do in the classroom with MAGNA-TILES, I can only imagine what they will create with a giant fort building set, or outdoor building blocks.
