Did you know that every year in November, there is an exceptional day for people who like science, technology, engineering, art, and math? It’s National STEM Day (and National STEAM Day too) celebrated on November 8th.
UCP students across all of our campuses were assisted by Math/Science Team Member Leads and given the opportunity to carry out STEM challenges using the engineering process. The Leads were provided STEM kits that included all the materials and directions necessary to carry out the STEM challenges. Other teachers were provided with ideas of STEM challenges that could be carried out with minimal materials.
STEM is critical for students' learning process as it helps them with:
Asking questions
Connecting the dots
Problem-solving
Thinking creatively
Being innovative
