Exciting News: Our New STEM Lab is Open!
We are pleased to announce the opening of our new STEM lab in Room 202, designed specifically for students in grades 2-8! This innovative space is not just for science enthusiasts—it's a hub for creativity and exploration across different subject areas.
In our STEM lab, students will engage in hands-on projects that spark their imagination and enhance their learning experience. From podcasting and green-screen recording to creating digital books and comic strips, the possibilities are endless! Our state-of-the-art 3-D printing technology allows students to bring their ideas to life, encouraging them to think critically and creatively.
All activities in the lab are aligned with Illinois science standards, ensuring that students are not only having fun but also meeting key educational benchmarks. By engaging in projects that integrate science, technology, engineering, and math, students will deepen their understanding of scientific concepts and develop essential skills for problem-solving and inquiry. Beyond just fun projects, the lab emphasizes good digital citizenship and teaches students how to navigate new technologies safely and responsibly. By fostering an environment of collaboration and innovation, teachers can help students take charge of their learning and develop vital skills for the future.
Join us in inspiring the next generation of thinkers, creators, and leaders! With the new STEM lab, we are committed to providing a comprehensive educational experience that nurtures curiosity and encourages every student to explore their potential. Come see what the excitement is all about! To visit the lab, call Ms. Cortez in the school office to arrange a brief student-led tour.
