My Project

In today's world, equipping young learners with essential skills goes beyond the textbooks! STEM+C integrates: Science, Technology, Engineering, Math, and Computational Thinking. STEM+C offers a dynamic approach to learning. The materials for this project would allow students to increase and foster their learning in our classroom. They are developmentally appropriate while allowing them to productively struggle and learn at their finger tips.

STEM+C matters to young learners because it fosters curiosity and exploration, critical thinking and problem solving, builds resilience and perseverance while collaborating and communicating effectively with their peers.

These Bee-Bots, Robot Mouse, and Space Rover will provide hands on exploration, coding and robotics, and take their learning beyond the classroom! They will also allow us to have engineering challenges, incorporate more math games and puzzles that will help students learn spatial reasoning, geometry, and problem solving skills.

STEM+ C education ignites young minds, cultivates creativity, resilience, and a lifelong love for learning. By integrating STEM+C activities, it will empower my students to explore, question, and innovate. Let's nurture the next generation of scientists, engineers, and problem solvers -- one STEM activity at a time.

Remember, the journey matters as much as the destination. So, let's embark on this exciting voyage of discovery with our young learners!
