STEM Supplies

Help me give my students STEM supplies. I would like to create STEM bins for students to work with during independent work time. I also would like to get STEM supplies that I can use during classroom instruction.

My Students

My students come from a rural area of northern Wisconsin. In fact, our nearest Target is over two hours away! My students live in the north woods, surrounded by wildlife and lakes. Our school is 2k-12th grade and only has a total of around 150 students.

My students have faced many challenges in the last year.

They are very adaptive to new situations and did a great job with E-Learning. From COVID making school online, to having a new teacher and now having to stay in the same classroom for the full day.

My students love to be creative. We often do dance parties and drawing for our brain breaks throughout the day. Recess is full of pretending to be in the Chronicles of Narnia or sliding like penguins.

My Project

I would like to use the materials in the Donors Choose project to aid in math and science instruction. I will be creating anchor charts with the poster paper. The sand will be used to teach erosion, a topic that sixth grade spends a lot of time on. Many materials are going to be used for hands on instruction. Examples of this are the play-dough which can be used as a math manipulation.

The STEM bins are for early finishers, they contain challenges for students to attempt.

The cardstock is for the challenges to be printed on and the containers are for the materials to be stored in. The STEM bins would allow students to be in charge of their own learning.

These materials will allow my students to get a more “hands on” education. Students will be able to do more labs in science class. This will create an engaging experience for all students.
