My school is a conventional K - 6 elementary school and my class is a self contained first grade. I have 17 energetic, vibrant, and curious students who learn best by moving, touching, and exploring. Rarely do they sit and complete worksheets.
We live in a community surrounded by science, math, engineering, and technology opportunities. The children are able to watch rockets blast off into space from their backyards. They are naturally curious about how things work.
I have set up a STEM learning station in my classroom this year to give my students a chance to explore these 21st century topics. I am excited to see their learning growth as a result of this focus.
