STEM Teacher Resources 501
STEM Starters
STEM Starters Provide students with essential tools to complete hands-on projects. When
combined with everyday items, these materials can be used to design and execute a project
using creative exploration and the engineering design process. By approaching a problem or
a challenge with this thought process, children are able to make educated guesses, problem
solve, and learn without the fear of making a mistake. Perfect for individuals or small groups.
