CES STEAM Week! April 6-10th

Students in the 5th and 6th grade Tech Ambassador program have been working hard to prepare for the first annual "STEAM Week" which will take place from April 6-10th! The idea behind STEAM education, (which incorporates Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) is to provide a multidisciplinary approach that builds critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration skills around technical subjects.

This group has been preparing a set of special workshops for each grade level. Lessons include programming robots, coding with lego kits, building an electrical circuit in Minecraft, creating art with handmade robots or 3D pens, and composing an original song with looping instruments.

The week will conclude with a visit from ECHO educators, who will be bringing a variety of hands-on science, technology, engineering, and math activities to CES as part of their traveling STEM fair!
