Full STEAM Ahead!

The combined areas of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics is known as STEM.  In reading about education, readers may come across articles on STEM standards in which the different content areas are integrated.  This summer, Mr. Dimen, Ms. LaVigne, and Ms. Barnett attended a STEAM conference in which Art was integrated with the STEM standards.  As a result of their learning, Mr. Dimen, Ms. LaVigne, and Ms. Barnett created an assignment in which the students were required to create a motorized structure that might scare the geese from the grass.  I think the results are unique and innovative and can't wait to see how they look on our lawn.
