Shining Stars in the 21st Century After-School Program had a blast with this hands-on STEM activity! They created their own pan flutes by taping together straws of different lengths, then explored how the length of each straw affected the pitch of the sound. A fun and musical way to learn about science!
Our 5th-grade Shining Stars' students completed an exciting STEM lesson, designing and constructing a self-standing rainbow arch out of paper! This engaging, hands-on activity was a fantastic way to explore engineering concepts and creativity, all made possible through the support of the 21st Century Grant.
