What is S.T.E.M.
S.T.E.M. stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. While there is no "A" in S.T.E.M., art is another piece that will be incorporated in our lessons as design is a crucial part of creating.
I look forward to working with your Bulldog/s and helping them learn through hands-on projects. In our class, students will have the chance to, as Ms. Frizzle used to say, "take chances, and make mistakes," without worry. The ultimate goal will be the learning and how sometimes we may have to try a few times before our plan "works".
Your student/s will attend S.T.E.M. as part of our Discovery Time Rotation, along with Art, Music, and P.E.
We are on an A/B year schedule to avoid students doing the same projects/activities 2 years in a row.
