Less than $5 1st Grade Science Centers (by price, low to high)

STEM activities in the classroom are a fantastic engagement opportunity! Students enjoy challenges, show off their creativity, develop partner skills, and much more. Recently Dollar Tree had these National Geographic books. Wow! What a great find. Hint, I check my local Dollar Tree for this typeof book frequently. STEM challenge cards were created for each of the books. Most of the cards will have sentence from the book and a challenge activity for the students to complete. You decide what supplies you will provide for your students. There are so many different supplies to choose from: craft sticks, legos, pattern blocks, straws, linker cubes, buttons, q-tips, dough and toothpicks, and I’m sure you can think of lots more. Grab your copy while these cards are free. We would love to have you leave a comment! Thanks for visiting! Judy and Rachel iTeach 2nd
