STEAM DAY

Full STEAM ahead!

Second Grade held their first full STEAM day.

The CHALLENGE was to build a raft that would float, hold a small tiger figure (Shakey), and support him in an upright position while waves shook the raft.

Teams were tasked to work together to plan, design, construct, test and resign if necessary.

Parent volunteers, students from the middle school, Dr. Klenchy, Mrs. Kane and even Shakey himself were on hand to offer advice and encouragement!

The STEAM teams documented their efforts by taking pictures on an iPad and creating PicCollages using an app. Everyone uploaded their collage to their Google Drive to keep a copy. Be sure to check out your child's collage in his/her drive account!
