Desafíos STEM semanales con la Sra. Erin

In this ongoing class, students will participate in weekly exciting and engaging STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics) challenges using simple materials found at home.
Each class will begin with an introduction to the challenge of the week through a presentation, video clips, images etc... Ms. Erin will ask the students many different questions to encourage their critical thinking and logical reasoning skills. Students will be encouraged to share their thoughts and ideas.
Students will then begin working on their projects while continuing to discuss and share ideas.
If students finish during the class time, they may present their findings and results. Some students may require extra time to complete the challenges. They are welcome to post their results in the classroom.
