STEM! I love doing hands on activities with the students! Always have. Just ask the husband who has made, carried, or bought tons over the years. He’s a keeper! Anyway – I was a little nervous at first when Carson Dellosa sent me their new Stem Challenge cards. The box said Grades 2-5. L I teach kindergarten. But guess what??? They will be fine for us! They will not be independent cards, but we can still use them! The CCS have upped the rigor for science, so my teaching BFF’s and I have been working through what we need to add and change. These will be great! There are two different versions – STEM Challenges and STEM Challenges Seasonal. So I opened up the seasonal first. Three tabs in the box – Spring/Summer, Winter, Autumn. I was thrown off when there was nothing behind the Autumn tab. Then I realized that the cards are in FRONT of the tabs. (I may have been sitting outside in the sun too long! LOL) The Challenge box is set up the same with Earth & Space, Life
I giggled when I saw yout math cabinet...looks a lot like mine - same materials also! Not sure if containers would be best due to geting the most out of your space. We will see what others suggest. Best of luck with the challenge:)
ReplyDeleteThanks Kimberlee! I'm sure we'll see many familiar items on our journey:) I don't think containers will help. It's all the odd size stuff that drives me crazy! I can't wait for the suggestions! Good luck to you also!

ReplyDeleteSchool Girl Style has some great tips for all of us on the organization bandwagon! I heart #4,5,6!!! I really need to learn to keep it simple! We have a mini grant available to us at our school and I can't think of anything that I really need - I need to accept it and realize that it is ok! I don't have to get stuff, just to get stuff.
You are lucky to have so much storage in your classroom! I feel that my room gets cluttered because I simply do not have any storage whatsoever. Good luck on the project! Excited to see how it looks after a few linkys!
