As a college student preparing to become a teacher, I noticed a need for good, affordable resources for elementary schoolers in the STEAM field. Out of this need came my creation of STEAM Design, providing affordable resources for K-5 teachers and parents that are easy to recreate, support the standards, and most of all fun! I hope you enjoy these resources as much as I have enjoyed creating them!
