All first graders were introduced to STEM this past week at East Elementary. The students will do several activities centered around STEM this year. Science, Technology, Engineering and Math are vital skills for our students to learn about and put into practice. In this activity, kids were asked to build a basket, like the one "Little Red Riding Hood" used in the story. They had a limited amount of supplies that included paper, tape, string, and noodles.
In the end, each basket was tested to see how much weight it could hold. They did a great job, and each and every student was a part of a successful basket. Great job 1st Graders and classroom teachers!!!
