Meet Cocoa Salir! Our new addition to the Ayala Ranch was born April 27th during a spring storm! We are so proud our this beautiful colt and his mom, Coral. #horses@IALHA
ANTS TALKING?! Yes, ants communicate with sound. I did not know this fact. You? I dropped 2 different colonies together and they started talking. After 4 days…quiet unassuming ants again. Turn the volume up - this is so interesting! #Biology#ants#science#ISTE
Fifth Grade #STEM students were busy lighting up a Sky Scraper! Civil and Electrical Engineers collaborated to build and light a sky scraper. Copper tape, batteries and LEDs were combined properly to complete a circuit, lighting up a Puyallup! #STEMeducation
Fourth grade #STEM engineers each experienced the "Wheel and Axel" build during a hands-on Car Challenge! After the wheel/axel was assembled, each built the vehicle chassis then designed a unique model. #science@tirebusiness@kenwoodtire
Fourth grade #STEM engineers each experienced the "Wheel and Axel" during a hands-on Car Challenge! After the wheel/axel, each built the vehicle chassis then the model. One student built a wagon plus a third wheel/axel to place her horses on! #science@tirebusiness@kenwoodtire
Blast Off!! Third grade #STEM Flight Engineers focus their attention on wing design as they drew prototype models of rockets, then built and tested their ideas on an outdoor launch pad! @Boeing#STEMeducation
Second grade Earth Scientists draw a map of an imaginary island. A key and compass were added. Students were then challenged to build a coresponding topographical map using layers of paper. #math#science#STEM#cartography
The race is on! First grade #STEM students collaborated to CODE a path, allowing them to collect 3 keys, arriving at the treasure before the Ogre! #100daysofcodingchallenge

#CODING in Kindergarten! Students follow "Pearl and her robot Pascal" as they write specific instructions to build a sandcastle. Ks write a set of instructions to move Pearl across the beach using arrows. CS language re-enforced through play. #100daysofcode @joshfunkbook

Fifth grade electrical engineers applied their knowledge of circuits from last week to complete an electrical template, lighting up the ocean! #Papercircuits, copper tape, battery, and LED lights.💡🦈🧜♀️ #STEM#STEMeducation#science
Fourth grade collision engineers launched their studies to a new height! Catapults were constructed and tested. Students mapped distance using the gridded map. Modifications were made to their catapult based on results. #math#physics#STEM#STEMeducation
Third grade flight engineers "took off" in their studies of the Forces of Flight! Helicopter designs were tested for weight and lift. Hoop gliders tested thrust and drag. Our day was nothing but smiles from successful engineers! #STEM@Boeing#forcesofflight#science
Second Grade students shared their #STEM room with a very wiggly friend! Earth scientists studied anatomy, made a habitat for, and documented observations of a worm. What does a worm do when placed in a new environment? #science#math#STEMEducation#compostIng#earthscience
First grade civil engineers moved from applied science to tech. Last week engineers collaborated to design a bridge spanning, at least, 36" using popsicle sticks. This week students used @BridgeConstructor app to build bridges! #STEM is so cool! #math#bridgeconstructor#STEMed
