The materials from your generous donations have allowed me to teach the children about STEM. With the items we received, these children will be able to learn more about spatial relationships while playing with the penguin blocks. They're able to work on number recognition, as well as matching numbers to their quantities. My kids are really loving the plant viewer. They get excited to see how much the peas are growing and changing every day, and we take photos to document the growth. I am so thrilled that my kids are able to learn first hand about the life cycle of a plant and see how plants grow from seeds. \r\n\r\nMy kids really love the specimen center kits and being able to see the breakdown of the different species. A majority of my children do not have access to these type of resources at home, so they're able to be exposed to STEM at school, as STEM is important for a child's development. My children were so happy to receive the new items.
