Hands-On Learning During STEM Summer Lessons

Copiague School District’s elementary students were engaged in hands-on STEM lessons during the summer program.

During their STEM class, students made “magic milk” using milk, food coloring and dish soap. They were able to see the different chemical reactions when the items were mixed.  During another STEM lesson, students created catapults out of popsicle sticks and rubber bands. They then tested their devices to see how far they could launch marshmallows and calculated the distances.
