Support the STEM

Help me give my students a great experience in their classroom by expanding their exposure to STEM. We live in an area with very few stem-based extra curricular activities available.

My Project

In my wish list, I have included all the materials I'd like to use to have students do STEM-based activities in the morning before school starts and when they finish assignments early. These activities are meant to be fun but engaging, keeping them curious and excited about what is to come for the rest of the day.

These students need as much educational support as I can provide them.

The marble run will help student better understand gravity and momentum as they build challenge courses I've prepared for them. The magnet tiles will give the kids a building challenge as they pretend to be an engineer to solve a problem. All of these materials will help give these children a better education and will help encourage them to continue growing and learning as a student.
