Happy Friday!
Here is a summary of our STEAM oriented classes this week at Chatham.
SCIENCE - Our science classes this week were very unique. In our Youngster class the students explored the living objects outdoors during their nature walks and our cooking classes learned the chemistry of the way that some foods change through the heating or cooling process.
TECHNOLOGY - The classes this week that were solely focused on technology were our Scratch, Java, 3D and 2D Video Game Creation classes. They learned several types of coding languages as well as different ways to write programs. Each student's unique game truly reflected their understanding and passion of the programming.
ENGINEERING - Our Civil Engineering class was able to build different structures in order to test out how much force a building or a bridge can withstand. They were asked to complete challenges, build assigned buildings and come up with their own unique structures.
ARTS - The culinary arts class did a beautiful job of designing different desserts. Learning how to express their artistic talents through cooking was a fun thing to do for the cutie cooks especially. Our Animation Film Making class also did some amazing work on their movie. Their illustrations were very detailed and their filming talents were very impressive! Our creative writing classes also used their minds to create lovely anthologies of their stories that were written all week.
MATHEMATICS - Our Java class learned a new understanding of numbers and number sense when coding their programs this week.
Our Flickr page and our weekly Animoto have some great pictures of our students exploring new interests.
