All About Senses





STEAM is an educational approach to learning that uses Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts and Mathematics as access points for guiding student inquiry, dialogue, and critical thinking. The end results are students who take thoughtful risks, engage in experiential learning, persist in problem-solving, embrace collaboration, and work through the creative process. These are the innovators, educators, leaders, and learners of the 21st century!
As explorers we investigate the world around us through an inquiring mindset.
Message in a Bottle Steam Challenge
As part of our Big Ideas Unit on Explorers students will be given the challenge of how to communicate with others when stranded on a island, or a part of the world where there is no cell phones or emails. How would could an explorer solve this problem of communicating in order to get help, or tell others of the exciting things they have seen? One idea would be to create a Message in a Bottle.
