This is just a start to the STEM challenges that can connect us all! We want to find ways that students and families can do something fun and hands-on together with the supplies they have around the house.
Here are our challenges for the next few weeks:
1. Crazy hat design and share with the focus on how we know that this is a big crazy, but how can we make the best of it? How can we support you? What do you need?
2. Make it move and dance party, connecting what we need to do to stay active for our health and our mind
3. Building Connections: blocks and Lego or recyclables and share your favorite virtual lesson so far
4. Tower Talk: building towers and talking about positives and how to make lemonade with lemons
5. Bridge Building problem solving session share what might be hard and what we can do together to support each other
6. Future's so bright I gotta wear shades sunglasses challenge and what we want to see for the future
