Miss Pauling’s and Mrs. Seibert’s friends created bird feeders today. First, the classes studied the differing habits of animals in winter: adapting, hibernating, and migrating. This project integrated math with the use of patterns. Then, the kiddos had to string their food in a repeating pattern on their pipe cleaner.

Tonight’s STEM activity for Wildcat Adventure was making our own cars! The kiddos were hired by a racing team to develop the sturdiest and fastest car. They built their cars around a Sphero Spark Robot that connected to an IPad. They had to drive their creation through three differing tracks.

Today at Wildcat Adventure the kiddos had to complete a STEM project based around a sewer drain. Their goal was to work with their groups to build a device to retrieve the “vacation” items from the drain. The catch was, they only had pipe cleaners, q-tips, popsicle sticks, a ruler, and tape!
