Curriculum
STEAM challenges that students will complete this year will begin with a read aloud of a fun and engaging picture book. This will get students thinking about a possible problem that we could work to solve while presenting them with context for the concepts they will be exploring.
Why picture books?
Picture books often have concepts and story lines that will help students remember what they learned better than a text book alone. This also allows us to integrate cross curricular studies in the form of fiction and non-fiction texts into the STEAM classroom, giving students a well rounded learning experience in a variety of areas!
