STEAM - Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math all go hand in hand. Through a STEAM-based unit, our students are taught to think critically. STEAM teaches our students to look at the big picture and helps them to creatively find solutions in a collaborative setting. STEAM also teaches perseverance; something can always be made better. Why else would we buy the newest iPhone or the latest gaming system? This is STEAM.
