Week of March 27th to March 31st

Last week was a busy week for Gifted Support.

We traveled to the Maker Space at Schuylkill Intermediate Unit 29.  This is a new area for STEM exploration.  We made two trips.  Sixth grade on Monday, and Third, Fourth, and Fifth on Tuesday.  It was amazing.  The students worked with Makey Makey and Leopoly. 

Our K’Nex challenge team competed at Intermediate Unit 29 in Pottsville on Thursday, March 23.  The challenge was to create a ride using K’Nex for an environmentally friendly new amusement park. Joey, Trinity, Lorelai, and Melissa did an amazing job and came home with 2nd place medals.  It was a great experience!

PSSA testing begins next week so we will be doing some relaxing activities in Gifted Support to help relieve stress.  I also have some spring related STEM activities planned.

Please contact me with any questions or concerns at (570) 874-3661 Ext. 3132 or at nnestor@northschuylkill.net.
