🐣 Easter STEM Fun! 🐰 Our 3rd and 4th classes had an egg-cellent time in our Easter-themed STEM lab! From egg drop challenges and building egg towers, to designing egg boats and weighing raw vs chocolate eggs, there was lots of hands-on learning and fun. Students also coded Easter animations, programmed robots to move eggs, and even built their own Easter baskets! πŸ€–πŸ₯šπŸ§Ί 🌟 #STEM #EasterSTEM #HandsOnLearning #PrimarySchool #STEMEducation EasterFun FutureEngineers
