4th and 5th Graders at Timber Lane take STEAM Specials once every 2 weeks. Ms. Mollie Morneau leads the STEAM specials, and students engage in engineering challenges and enrichment activities that supplement Science and Social Studies content. This gives opportunities for students to think outside the box and collaborate with their classmates in a creative environment. Students have worked on building bridges, aluminum foil boats as an enrichment activity to their learning of Jamestown settlements, and building the slowest ramp to apply their knowledge of motion and friction.
