I am a new STEAM Activity teacher. I am bringing as much hands-on STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math) to my students as possible. It is a costly endeavor and I am trying to use the materials I have in the classroom but am learning how much more we could use. In consultation with a STEM mentor, I have learned the value of bringing stations to the classroom. It would be invaluable to have snap circuits for the older students and marble mazes for the younger students (although I imagine all will use the mazes). This will help the students with their fine motor skills as they have to put these activities together. The marble mazes will help with learning forces. And the snap circuits will help with learning electricity.
