Last Thursday afternoon our students participate in
rotational groups between music and STEM
activities. Miss Cuthbert instructed students in
music and Mrs. Ryan involved students in STEM.
STEM will involve science, technology, engineering
and mathematic activities. Last week the upper
grades designed and tested a variety of paper
plane. Students discovered that the larger planes
glided a further distance than the smaller planes
due to increase surface to keep the plane up.
