2.7 STEM Journals

The above STEM journal artifacts showcase where are students began in the process of creating STEM journals and what was expected of them. During the school year 2022-2023, many of our students were using STEM journals to document data they are collecting, drawing designs of their prototypes, or filling in flipcharts or graphic organizers in their notebooks. 

3rd Grade STEM journals 

2nd Grade STEM journals 

Our second grade students have been brainstorming pollinators in our area as well as creating a pollination process and writing questions for our STEM career connection -- Brandon Brooks, local beekeeper. 

5th Grade STEM Journal 

Students have been engaging in observations of the Living Classroom and completing notes on chemical and physical changes that support their PBL on projects that sustain the Living Classroom. 

4th Grade STEM Journals 

Our fourth grade students have been utilzing their STEM journals to answer questions based on information shared from the WeatherDawgs, UGA's weather team as well as testing out rockets and how weather/wind may impact their different flight paths. They have utilized their journals to reflect on their PBL question and why it is relevant to our society. 

1st Grade STEM Journals 

Students in first grade have been engaged in researching plants and the parts of a plant. Students have used their STEM journals to create drawings of their own seedlings and identified parts of the plant as they are growing.
