My Project

My 1st grade students are naturally curious and love to explore the world around them. They learn best through hands-on experiences that engage their senses and spark their imagination. By providing them with STEM materials, I can give them opportunities to build, experiment, and discover in ways that make learning exciting and meaningful.

STEM education in early childhood builds a lifelong love of learning.

These materials will encourage my students to ask questions, test their ideas, and learn through trial and error—just like real engineers. By engaging in hands-on STEM activities, they will strengthen their math and literacy skills while also developing creativity and perseverance. With the right resources, I can create a classroom where my students feel empowered to explore and innovate.

Ms. Walker will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by July 26.
