My Project

Learning through play has many benefits for my imaginative first graders! My students love when they are able to take charge of their learning and explore their creative side.

Giving my students access to these resources will give them the opportunity to increase many different skill sets while building their love for learning as well!

Having STEM kits allows my students to use their creativity to build their engineering skills, critical thinking skills, and imagination. STEM bins offer my students the opportunity to problem-solve and create with their peers. This helps to strengthen social skills as well as build confidence and friendships. Building with these different kits also enhances fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination. These kits allow my students to have instant access to resources to help them explore their creativity!
