STEM Day
Bugg Magnet Elementary School Center for Design & Computer Sciences - Grade 3
Students were provided with a real-world scenario and given the task to design and build a sturdy and comfortable sky lift chair that will replace this ski mountain’s current outdated and dangerous sky chairs. Students followed the design thinking process to create a sky lift chair made out of craft sticks, straws, yarn, cotton swabs, aluminum foil and other materials. Students worked collaboratively and followed the design thinking process to complete their project.

Reedy Creek Magnet Middle School - Grade 8
Reedy Creek Magnet Middle School's First Tech Challenge (FTC) robotics team, Bots By The Creek recently visited students from the Olive Chapel Elementary School robotics club to share their knowledge of robotics, engineering and programming. The Reedy Creek team will visit at least 4 times to continue to share and teach. These learning experiences represent a valuable and appreciated collaboration, and they are a wonderful example of students teaching students in the field of STEM.
