In our 5th grade Social Studies classes we have been learning about the Ancient Mesoamerican Civilizations such as the Maya, Inca, and Aztecs. The students were presented with a stem challenge over what they have learned about these civilizations. They were able to choose between building a 3D structure from one of the civilizations, making an ancient calendar or creating one of three different types of Mayan masks. The students had two weeks to follow the stem process of research, design and then creating their project. They were able to research and design at school and then create their project at home. The students did a fantastic job and were definitely up to the challenge!
5th graders created a marble run to help the turkey escape during their STEM Literacy Activity after they read the book "How to Catch a Turkey"!

Mrs. Roach's 1st grade class read Thanksgiving at the Tappletons'. Their turkey went into the pond. We did a STEM activity and created poles to help retrieve the turkey!
