STREAM Program Returns with a Host of New Experiences!
The Steel Valley STREAM Program will return in the second semester of the 2017-18 school year with deeply immersive, engaging and exciting educational opportunities for students in grades 6, 7 and 8. In February, sixth graders will be put through a whirlwind event focusing on the math and science behind roller coasters. In March, seventh grade students will discover the laws of motion and how to stay safe on the road with our “Crash Test Dummies” event. The year will culminate with eighth graders racing boats across the swimming pool that they design and build themselves out of cardboard!
Events require more than answering questions or getting the right answer. They involve investigation, exploration, search, quest, research, pursuit, and study. It is enhanced by a community of learners, each learning from the other in social interaction.
Additional information for each event, including applications, will be distributed closer to the actual events. Follow SVSD STREAM on twitter @svsdSTREAM or on Facebook at SV STREAM.
