MakerPlace STEAM Carts

MakerPlace STEAM Carts
Each MakerPlace STEAM Cart consists of ten 1-hour hands-on activity lesson plans, seven 30-minute hands-on activity lesson plans, and multiple technology enhancements for use during each lesson. Activities are geared towards grades 1-5 and designed for up to 25 students to participate in individual or group sessions. STEAM Carts are placed in schools for a six month residency, and selected schools can use the cart to supplement active classroom lessons, enable after school enrichment opportunities, or promote family engagement.
