Learning becomes exciting when you tie it to real world experiences. That’s why these students at the summer academy are having a great time. They had the opportunity to make predictions about bowling pins, build bowling pins and even bowl with their very own pins.




Do you see the smiles on the faces of these children? That’s because they are having fun learning about bridges and bridge building at the summer academy. These children in Mrs. Marple’s STEAM class built bridges out of an unusual material, Spaghetti! It’s pretty amazing how many blocks their bridges held.








How do you get students excited about the Summer Learning Academy? Let them visit Mrs. West’s STEAM class and it is sure to do the trick. The series of lessons on bowling was not only engaging but educational. Students used science, mathematics, language, art and some technology skills as they learned all about bowling pins and bowling.
