This Weeks Stem Project!

The kids are loving these STEM projects! This week we read the book "I Wanna New Room". They got to learn what area is and what an architect does. The kids planned their own "dream rooms" and did a blueprint.  They were very creative!

STEM fun!

I sent an email earlier in the week, telling you about our storybook STEMS we will be doing each week for the rest of the year. 
We concluded our week with our first STEM this morning and it was SO much FUN!
The challenge was to create a sailboat that can be moved by wind with out turning over. We learned vocabulary like buoyancy, capsize, mast and hull. 
They knew their boats needed to float, be sturdy, strong, and balanced. 
They worked in teams of 3 or 4 and I am so proud of how they synergized and communicated with each other. 
Here are some pictures of our projects!
