It was a Saturday powered by STEAM where families are created clouds, made modern art with magnets, launched zombies into the sky, and harnessed the power of the sun.
BCS STEAM Day - filled with activities incorporating science, technology, engineering, arts, and math - took place March 14 at Nesbitt Discovery Academy. BCS curriculum specialists and teachers from schools across the district joined community partners for a day of free family fun. Since this year’s event fell on March 14, Pi Day, BCS Science Specialist Kate Whittier leaned into the mathematical constant of 3.14 - which goes on for infinite decimal places - with the theme “Infinite Curiosity, Infinite Digits.”
“Our teachers and partners guided activities to get everyone thinking, creating, and collaborating,” she said. “From exploring constellations to computer coding to designing marshmallow architecture, the scientific exploration and family fun was limitless. When students are experimenting, building and trying new ideas, they’re learning skills that go far beyond the classroom.”
Nesbitt students also facilitating several activities, and helping guide families through the event.
