So cool to see the awesome astronomy #PBL that @FlorisSTEAM had with 6th grade today! Each group had a surprise box of supplies, a planet with differing needs, habitat, and adaptations/ modifications. The student engagement and critical thinking skills were dominating the room!

First STEAM challenge of the year! Students had fun collaborating and problem-solving as they attempted to make the tallest freestanding structure made of spaghetti, string, tape, and a marshmallow. Not all groups were successful but we learned A LOT about teamwork #florisrocks
