Kindergarten is learning about shadows with their teachers, so what better time to make shadow puppets? Today we read Pete the Cat and learned to make perfect circles using cups as well as cut holes into shapes. @FCPSSTEAM @PeteTheCat #STEM #STEMeducation #iteachstem

2nd grade is designing a toy that uses the push or pull force of a magnet. This one uses BOTH! I was a bit apprehensive to give younger students such an open ended project (and access to so many supplies) but they are blowing me away with their creativity! @FCPSSTEAM #STEMEd
