STEM Education Curriculum

Snow Hill Primary School is offering Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) integrated learning in K-1. Students regularly learn through various collaborative methods with clearly defined individual and team expectations in the program during the year. Teachers promote collaboration throughout instructional tasks.

The tiered system of Jr. Challenges, Science Kits, and Canvas STEM-Repository tasks maximize student-centered learning opportunities in each STEM classroom. The Engineering Design Process provides the structure students use to guide the development of their final product. Students work as a team to complete a Jr. Challenge. Students must work through templates that promote research, blueprinting, technology presentation, materials collection, and design components to complete their collaborative product. 

"Jr. Mini-Makers" Ambassadors

The STEM Society was established to provide leadership opportunities beyond the classroom for students in the STEM from Kindergarten through high school. The "New Name Soon Ambassadors" are the core group of students that create opportunities for all students in the STEM Society by working with community leaders, community events, hosting community appreciation events, and supporting academic acknowledgement of their peers.

Objectives
1. To implement a STEM Education awareness campaign with a focus on STEM careers, Business/Industry Guest Speakers, Community Service Projects, School Service Projects, and development of student leaders.

What Students Are Saying

"My brother recommended it because I’m not good under pressure or having a lot of stress and he says that in stem all that will go away because of the presentations. I want to not be shy and be good at talking to people".

"I would love to join the STEM program because it would be a great opportunity for me to show my creativity and ideas. I'm looking forward to working in groups and getting a hands-on learning experience. I believe that STEM will challenge me because it will help me get in touch with the technology and engineering side. Overall I feel like STEM will benefit my future toward my career".
