Last week's K2 STEM hosted a high school paper airplane-making expert! We followed directions for a simple design and then tested our prototypes in the gym.
Afterward, we learned about a special design he created and watched it SOAR all over the small gym with the slightest touch. We cannot wait to learn more about this design and more at our upcoming STEAM night!

Optimism: A Timely STEM Characteristic of the Week in Kindergarten
We've been really focusing on developing a growth mindset and positive attitude in kindergarten. On a daily basis, we begin our morning meeting with a reminder that if we believe we'll have a great day, we will!
Through challenges in the classroom and beyond, it's essential to maintain our optimistic attitude. If we believe we can succeed, we will!
Optimism: An essential characteristic that helps us R.O.A.R. with Pride!
