Description
The following Quick Writes are designed to accompany my STEM Bins®, found at the following link:
The following Quick Writes are designed to be used as simple literacy and math extensions to accompany my original STEM Bins product. Both lower grade and upper grade options are provided.
Quick Writes for STEM Bins™ should be copied for students and placed near an easily accessible STEM Bins™ display area. Papers can be placed inside hanging folders in a crate or file box as shown in the preview photo, placed in a pocket chart, or divided into plastic drawers. Labeled tabs for activity choices are provided for you to adhere to your organizational system. You may choose to display as few or as many Quick Write options as you’d like to meet your students’ needs and may choose to assign specific activities. You may also choose to change out Quick Write options weekly or monthly.
For most Quick Write activities, two leveled options are provided, one simple
option with dotted lines that is most appropriate for Kindergarten, First
Grade, and early Second Grade and one option that is more appropriate for advanced Second Grade and upper grades. Additional options at the end of
the file are provided specifically for upper grade students in grades 3-5.

Brooke, seriously – – this is amazing. I can’t think of a single way to improve this resource unless you had it hand delivered to me by Chris Pratt. The differentiation in this resource is off the charts and works well for ALL of my students in my special needs classroom. It’s the perfect addition to the STEM Bins resource. Thank you SO much (but please consider the Chris Pratt idea). -Cuppa Special Tea

We used these in the afternoon during our science time. Students loved using these to explain what they were doing and what they were thinking while working on our STEM. I loved that these helped them put into words their thoughts about the hands-on work they did using our STEM bins. -Kimberly Z.
