My Project

STEM science kits and specimens would help my students explore science topics every day. They could use the games in small groups and independently to investigate and explore so many different science topics.

They will be encouraged to ask questions, make a hypothesis, experiment, and report on their learning using the kits and new materials.

Science, technology, engineering, and math are extremely important learning areas that we want our students to use and learn about now!

The students will greatly benefit from using these materials in their earliest learning environment so that they can develop a passion for science in the future.
