Project Description by Mrs. Moreno: This year we want to offer even more STEM-focused learning opportunities. We would like to introduce a variety of STEM projects throughout the year to foster collaboration and problem-solving skills.
The skills that can be gained from a STEM education go beyond the skills needed to succeed in the STEM field, and children with diverse interests and careers entering all industries are equipped with valuable skill sets that enable them to succeed. I am preparing to put it on.
21st century skills include media and technology literacy, social skills, communication, flexibility and initiative. Other skills that can be gained through STEM education include problem solving, critical thinking, creativity, curiosity, decision making, leadership, entrepreneurship and acceptance of failure. Whatever they choose to do in the future, these skill sets will go a long way in enabling them to innovate and add value to their team.

Project description by Davis:Ideas born from free exploration are where learning happens naturally. Direct instruction is necessary, but students are more likely to enjoy addition and subtraction if they can make their own counting sticks or doodle illustrations of specific word problems. 3Doodler allows students to share their ideas in a tangible and visual way. Students’ imaginations are limitless when they use their hands to create projects to help them learn. Any idea your students have can be created with the 3Doodler Pen. My students were able to create, design and invent.
