![]() In an effort to keep everyone informed and updated, one of my resolutions is to continue with my blog that I have been lacking with! The first post of the year will be dedicated to the Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math Expo that will occur on April 1st, 2017. Mr. Carlson, our Extended Curriculum Services (ECS) teacher came to our class on Friday to talk about the opportunities in entering a project in the STEAM Expo this year. I am very passionate about this event, because it allows for students to think, reason, research and present a project that is meaningful to them in Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math (STEAM). I had two students compete in this event last year, and they loved every minute of it! Here is a picture of Addie, a 1st grader who entered a project on the life cycle of a butterfly last year. I am highly encouraging you and your child to consider thinking about a project to submit for this event. I, of course, am happy to help with any questions or ideas to support your child. Below is a link to the STEAM Expo Weebly page with more information. I will also post a link to a website that allows your child to take a survey that leads them to projects that are of interest to them.
