My Project

To "Invest in Our Future" in the LMS Digital X classroom, we will be creating using STEAM kits and completing hands-on STEAM creativity and innovation challenges. As Pennsylvania transitions to the Science, Technology and Engineering, Environmental Literacy and Sustainability (STEELS) Standards our class will be incorporating the 4Cs of STEM (communication, collaboration, creativity, and critical thinking) through Innovation Challenges.

Students will be designing their own innovations to build on research from past inventions.

By learning about Inventions from our past, students will design innovations for our future and change the world around us!
