STEM DAY 13: Last one. I’m not sure that this can be considered STEM, but it was a cool last day experiment on density. @JIESBeacons @CCSDConnects

STEM DAY 12: paper clip helicopters! #aerodynamics #STEM #HELICOPTER @JIESBeacons @CCSDConnects

Here are the gifs- not sure why they didn’t post the first time- probably user error.

STEM DAY 9-11: condensation cup (no pics, I forgot), oobleck, & the best STEM activity of all- taking things apart! A few groups created complete circuits with the components! #STEM @JIESBeacons @CCSDConnects

STEM DAY 8: pendulum art. This one was a particularly successful but it was a lot of fun and we got to learn and talk about centrifugal motion. We may try it again with different materials and a different set up. #STEM @CCSDConnects @JIESBeacons

STEM DAY 7: tinfoil barges- who knew a single piece of foil would hold so much! Great discussion of displacement and boat design. #stem @CCSDConnects @JIESBeacons

She me= some 🤦‍♀️autocorrect and tired teacher…

STEM DAY 6: Scribble noodles! Some went in circles, she me were jittery, some got stuck… and the Scribble noodles were cool too! 😂 #STEM @JIESBeacons @CCSDConnects

STEM DAY 5: double up day- force and motion! We designed rubber band shooters and extender arms. It was so cool to see them trying to think through engineering something that turns potential energy into kinetic. #ilovemyjob #STEM @JIESBeacons @CCSDConnects

STEM DAY 4: pipe cleaner mazes! These were harder than we first thought, but I was impressed with the results! #stem @JIESBeacons @CCSDConnects

[Shelby Joffrion @msjoffrion]

STEM DAY 3: catapults! Why were they all shooting me?!!? #ReadyForSummer @JIESBeacons @CCSDConnects

[Shelby Joffrion @msjoffrion]

@Simplif12183138 @CCSDConnects @JIESBeacons Thanks! We’ll give it a shot!

STEM day 2: Circuits! Man, I love “light bulb moments”! Also, we could not complete a circuit using graphite. 😕 #STEM #Science @CCSDConnects @JIESBeacons

Today was field day, so we took a STEM break, but we’re doubling up tomorrow. @CCSDConnects @JIESBeacons
