Innovation is on the rise. As we kick off our PBL's this year, take a look at some of the upcoming topics. Calling all parents with expertise or insight in the following areas. Feel free to reach out to Liz English (STEM Coordinator) eng010146@adams12.org if you have ways in which to support our STEM Model. Authentic partnerships with a variety of industry lenses makes a world of a difference when students tackle these complex problems!
1st Grade: Residents of Malley Transitional Care Center need a way to feel connected to the larger community so that they can improve emotional, physical, and intellectual wellbeing.
2nd Grade: Calling all inventors! Got connections to industries that are exceptionally innovative and forward thinking? These creative minds are going to "solve for the everyday need."
4th Grade: Their field experience with the First Green Program will help them explore a variety of PBL topics like environmental preservation, machinery, agriculture and seed labs, the math of golf maintenance, and then of course a little putt putt for fun. This opportunity offers so many possibilities of a PBL, can't wait to see what they decide!
5th Grade: Using hydroponics and confirmation-inquiry learning to see how we can use more sustainable agricultural systems! They will be visiting CSU Spur in a couple weeks to explore other renewable and sustainable systems.
7th Grade Social Studies: Connecting how Ancient River Systems have impacted our current state of water usage and to address sustainable solutions for addressing current water scarcity issues.
