TEACHING EXPERIENCE

STEM education is my passion! As a former engineer and homeschooling parent, I love creating engineering resources for kids as well as hands-on math activities and science experiments! You can read about some of the activities we've done on my momgineer blog, or visit my Facebook page for updates. I am also founder of the site STEM Activities for Kids:

where I am blessed to have so many amazing STEM educators writing and sharing their STEM knowledge with us!

MY TEACHING STYLE

I tend to make learning as hands-on as possible as that is how my own children learn - by doing! I have implemented this style of learning in my STEM Tales challenges, which are perfect for students in Grades 1-3 (ages 6-9):
