Throughout this school year, the Gnats at Dale R. Fair Babson Park Elementary have enjoyed different hands-on learning opportunities in the STEM Lab. We are so thankful for the partnership with a STEaMing Up Polk grant to fund some of these projects! This year our Kindergarten students explored being an engineer using Bristle toys, 1st grade students planted seeds in a CD case to be able to observe the life-cycle of a seed, our 2nd grade students explored how the Sun's energy heats colors differently, 4th grade students made models of the moon phases, and our 5th grade students created their own spiral galaxy on a cookie! These activities were possible because of the generous support from this grant.
