(Updated depending on the activity of the meeting)

Meeting 1 Welcome to the STEM Room

 Activity: Build a standing circle with pringles.

Meeting 2: Discussing basics of block coding

Hello students and parents!

During the meetings in October I will be discussing the basics of coding with the students who have joined the STEM Club. The program I enjoy using the most is scratch.mit.edu which allows students to create a variety of types of projects using block coding.

Meeting 4: The coding continues

Hello students and parents!

During the meetings in December  I will be continuing to discuss the basics of coding with the students who have joined the STEM Club. The program I enjoy using the most is scratch.mit.edu which allows students to create a variety of types of projects using block coding.

Meeting 5: Engineering & Architecture

During this meeting, students made structures out of spaghetti and marshmellows to learn about architecture and engineering.

Meeting 6: Revenge of the Code

This month's meeting involved the students continuing to learn how to code on scratch.mit.edu.

The sixth grade meeting was cancelled because of the snow that occurred the week of February 23, 2026.

Meeting 7: An almagation of ideas

This month, the fifth grade attempted to conduct a chemical reaction with sugar, water, and baking soda. It did not work; however, we were able to discuss the points of error that could occur in an experiment which will better help the students understand the scientific method moving forward.

The sixth grade recreated our first meeting with Pringles.

Meeting 8: The Return of the Code

Both grades will be having a coding class using scratch.mit.edu
