We found a GREAT opportunity to begin our school year with STEAM learning objectives plus:
  • Cooperation, Collaboration, and Communication
  • Fine and Gross Motor Skills
  • Literature and Journal Writing
  • Presentation Skills
  • Map Reading
  • Community Interaction
  • ...and more!
Picture
Our Kindergarten Enrichment classes built a giant, STEAM-themed scarecrow and entered it into a local contest!  While on display, we took a class trip to visit our scarecrow and have some fun viewing the other scarecrows in the competition.  It was a fantastic, pride-filled project to propel our students into an exciting year of collaborative, project-based learning!  See what's going on in your local community for your students to participate in... or to create their own school-based spin-off of!
Happy STEAMing! :)
