My Project

My students will set off a chain reaction of fun! The students will set up STEM activities!

After each test run of the STEM Kits, children will fine-tune the placement, distance and angle of each piece—getting firsthand practice with STEM concepts such as gravity, force, motion, momentum, speed, properties of materials, the design process, and problem solving!

These sets are perfect for open-ended building—or kids can use the leveled challenge cards to create a variety of different courses from scratch!

Help me give my students experience learning about and practicing STEM Concepts.
