Welcome to STEM at St. Joseph's. This is where we celebrate Super Scientists putting their heart into all that they do!

It's British Science Week and this year's theme is connections. Our amazing STEM Ambassadors will tell us all about it in our Assembly on Monday afternoon. They might even connect us all in a huge experiment! @stjosephsedin

P7S at play - time machines, Noah’s Ark, rocket ships, an amazing waterfall - the creativity was incredible! What a great way to start a STEM lesson.

Breaking news............ our recently appointed P7 STEM Ambassadors will be presenting some exciting ideas for Maths Week Scotland at assembly tomorrow. Good luck to our fabulous four.👩‍🔬 @stjosephsedin

Last week we continued building on our engineering and design skills using pasta to build towers and cars. The results were amazing !! 👩‍🔬@stjosephsedin

Today NASA were hoping to launch Artemis I and we can't wait to see it happen soon 🚀. Last week we launched our St Joseph's STEM programme 2022/23. We also spent time looking back at our STEM achievements in 2021/22. Why not take another look!👩‍🔬 @stjosephsedin

P5J explored the technology that we might use to save the planet.🙂 Here are just a few of their amazing creative ideas.👩‍🔬 @stjosephsedin @StJosephs_P5J

P4 and P4/3 are living in a material world!🙂 They are exploring and investigating the properties of materials including if materials are waterproof. We have also been learning about buoyancy. Well done Super Scientists.👩‍🔬

P6 have been on a Mission to Mars! P6 have been developing their research skills by investigating the red planet.😀 Why don't you ask them what they found?🚀 @stjosephsedin @St_JosephsP6

[StJosephs_STEM @StjosephsStem]

P6S are fascinated by freezing! We have been investigating what happens to different liquids when we freeze them. Here are just a few! @stjosephsedin @St_JosephsP6

[StJosephs_STEM @StjosephsStem]

P4 and P4/3 have been exploring and evaluating the properties of materials. Why don't you ask them to explain their wrapping or absorbency experiments! @StJosephs_P4_P3 @StJosephs_P4 @stjosephsedin

[StJosephs_STEM @StjosephsStem]

Last week a learner in P6 asked "what would happen if we make a giant ice cube?" Today we found out and we were surprised to see that it floated just like the small ones. Keep being curious P6! @stjosephsedin @StJosephs_P6

[StJosephs_STEM @StjosephsStem]

Most of all it's a Wonder Wall! This is our new STEM Board at St. Joseph's where we celebrate the work of all our Super Scientists. Every yellow Post-it has a STEM question a learner is curious about. Let's try to answer them together! @stjosephsedin

[StJosephs_STEM @StjosephsStem]

P4/3 have been investigating different types of microbes. This week we carried out an experiment to investigate how soap works. Here are some of our microbiologists hard at work. @stjosephsedin @StJosephs_P4_P3

[StJosephs_STEM @StjosephsStem]

What do you weigh on Mars? Just ask P7 and they will amaze you with their interplanetary mathematical calculation skills! This week we explored the force of gravity on different planets and on earth too. @stjosephsedin @StJosephs_P7

[StJosephs_STEM @StjosephsStem]

May the force be with you! P6 have been exploring forces and have made some fantastic posters to communicate their learning. @stjosephsedin @StJosephs_P6

I wonder what lies in store over the next week @stjosephsedin @StjosephsStem Our learners and families looking to @MakeMathsCount and bring the magic of maths to life during #mathsweekscotland

Have a look at St Joseph's STEM Club🚀 STEM Club is a collection of Teams based optional activities for P3 up to P7. It is a place to do experiments, ask questions and have fun👩‍🔬 Do you have any experiments, questions or inventions that you would like to share?😀 @stjosephsedin
