The children have had two STEAM activities so far.  The first activity was to build a beanstalk.  We began by viewing the Jack and the beanstalk story.  The students were then given shaving cream and pool noodles to build their own.  I apologize for the mess but they had a blast!







We also had some STEAM exploration time where we were able to use legos, blocks, and kinex to make our own building creation.
