YOU’VE PROBABLY HEARD THE TERM STEM BEFORE. What about STEAM? STEM stands for science, technology, engi- neering, and mathematics while STEAM adds the area of art. Rather than teaching each area of learning individually, STEAM curricu- lum helps children problem solve the way we would in our daily lives — by incorporating all these areas together. Most jobs do not require only one of these skill sets, but a mix of them.
Jonti-Craft realizes the importance of both STEM and STEAM learning, especially in early education. To help in the convergence of these different areas, Jonti-Craft has been developing products that help foster creativity, critical thinking and problem solving — all at the same time. “Take the Jonti-Craft STEAM Multi- media Cart and the Jonti-Craft STEM Workstation for example,” says Matt Hinkle, the National Sales Manager at Jonti-Craft, Inc. “Both provide multiple learning surfaces and storage options so it can be outfitted in various ways to support STEAM-based cur- riculum.” Plus, when you choose from Jonti-Craft’s wide selection
of STEAM furniture, you get products that are not only safe, but ones that are of superior-quality to withstand everyday use. All our items are constructed with Jonti-Craft’s industry-leading features so you know that they were made just for children and educational environments.
