About the store
My name is Della, and I create lessons and activities for kindergarten students. My goal is to provide young learners with opportunities to use critical thinking using, BeeBots, coding fundamentals, STEM challenges, and engaging digital resources. I have traveled the country, helping teachers bring coding, STEM challenges, and digital resources to their students in a developmentally appropriate way.
BeeBots: Imagine your kindergarten students learning computer science and seeing themselves through a new lens. My BeeBot mats enhance problem-solving skills, critical thinking, and self-confidence. Don't worry if you don't have a BeeBot. I have unplugged lessons.
STEM Challenges: My STEM challenges are designed to spark curiosity and inspire young learners to explore science, technology, engineering, and math in playful, hands-on ways. Teach your students to think critically and use the Engineering Design Process to build simple structures to solve challenges.
Digital lessons. Not all screen time is the same. My lessons are interactive, self-checking, and fun. Many include audio files and even videos to keep your students engaged.
With 35 years of experience in early childhood education and a passion for integrating innovative teaching methods, I am dedicated to creating supportive and engaging lessons where every child can thrive. My mission is to empower young learners to become confident, curious problem-solvers ready to navigate a world of endless possibilities.
