Hello everyone! We are getting nostalgic since this is about to end and we’ve had many memories, moments, adventures and skills we’ve developed🥲, we are so grateful for letting us be part of this, but now we would like to show you our most recent project which is april’s update😁🎉 (we are sorry for posting it late).

Since this month’s topic was science and to define solutions and search information about our community’s needs and use in air, water, earth and more, we decide with out mentor to look for help from our very intelligent science teacher Lorena Vazquez and she let us make an experiment in her class and also gave us some ideas and helpful recommendations, so thank you!!🙏🏻.

Throughout this month we chose to do four things:

A science experiment 🧪

Water consciousness 💧

Green around us 🪴

Air pollution 💨

With these four things we made investigations and charts were we examined the problems and with other charts and experiments we created some solutions and put them in practice.

So now we are proud to show you our work and we hope you like it!😁💫 Hope to see you next month with more content and experiences

Hello everyone!! We are sorry for taking so long to send this 😅. We are so excited to finally upload this video and we are grateful for sharing with us your beautiful tradition.

This March we followed the steps and with respect and admiration we tried our best to honor this tradition by creating our own amulets which we used for a whole day at school and kept it near for the month while we also investigated about Mărțișor and origins and we got surprised because of the amazing roots this has!

We did a video in which two of our teammates weren’t able to be part of but they also were part of every single step of this month’s project. We hope that you could have a look at it and enjoy it.

Hello everyone!!! We’re so glad to tell you about our recent project we’ve been working on this month.😁🎉

In honor to this wonderful experience, our tutor Laura obtained a permission for us to share some of our knowledge and experience to our schoolmates.

So through out one week we got to present and experiment with all the Jr. High School students of Clairmont School (our school)

Tuesday☀️: We went through the classrooms presenting What is STEAM?, VR and AR and the importance of STEAM while also providing the students the opportunity to compete in a Kahoot to see who actually learned of what we said.

Wednesday☘️: To focus on the science, engineering and art part, we decided to give the students the opportunity to take responsibility of their own plant and with all the plants ,we made a little garden to make the world greener and show them that while having fun.

Thursday🗼: To focus on engineering mainly and also creativity in art, they had to create a solution for THE MARSHMALLOW CHALLENGE!!!🧠 and we believe that in our institution we learn a lot of things like this to practice our abilities in STEAM and other areas.

Friday🌈💥: Last but not least, the most exciting part is when the last day we did the funniest project to show them that STEAM is not just science and numbers but also creativity and expression so the last day the CRAZY MONSTERS APPEARED!!!

This week we did many things and surprising results but we didn’t just show them that ,but we also learned a lot about many skills like:

Leadership

Teamwork

Creativity

Presentations

Organization

Good ways to teach

We are happy to share this with you and proud of all of our school members. Also we wanted to thank our school principal and teachers for the support and collaboration👏🏻🤝

Happy new year!!!🎉🎉🥂

We are proud to say that through this two months we’ve been working hard and we are merrier since this new year represents a new opportunity to bring the best out of ourselves. But what really has happened is that we had much more fun than before and we are looking forward to the next challenge.

We’ve been learning a lot of how things work and happen in here you will find many experiments and also the most important skill we developed is teamwork and science 🧪 👥

Hope all of you got a merry Christmas and happy new year!!🎉😁

See you soon

The advantages of the Marshmallow Challenge

# data[].attributes.subject
The advantages of the Marshmallow Challenge

# data[].attributes.body
The Marshmallow Challenge — where teams build the tallest freestanding structure from spaghetti, tape, string, and a marshmallow — is a fantastic entry activity for STEAM education because it combines creativity, experimentation, and collaboration.
Here are three key advantages for STEAM projects:

🧠 1. Encourages Design Thinking and Iteration

Students quickly learn that their first idea often doesn’t work — and that’s okay.
They test, fail, and rebuild within a short timeframe, which mirrors the engineering design process (prototype → test → refine).

STEAM connection: Engineering & science — applying experimentation and learning from data.

Skill built: Problem-solving through trial and error, resilience, and iterative thinking.

🤝 2. Strengthens Collaboration and Communication

The challenge forces teams to share ideas, divide roles, and coordinate under time pressure.
It reveals how diverse perspectives (creative, analytical, practical) can lead to stronger solutions.

STEAM connection: Technology & teamwork — real-world engineering always involves collaboration.

Skill built: Communication, leadership, and empathy in group work.

🎨 3. Stimulates Creativity and Applied Innovation

With simple materials, students are invited to think outside the box — balancing artistic vision and structural logic.
They visualize, build, test, and adjust — combining art, math, and physics in a tangible, fun way.

STEAM connection: Integration of all five domains — Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math.

Skill built: Creativity under constraints and the ability to translate ideas into real prototypes.

In here it appears the second challenge we made in task 3 and our creation of our own big structure in task 5.

First in task 3 we used:

Engineering- To make the structure stable we had to think and invent some ideas to make it useful

Art- We made our own design and it has a very peculiar form

Task 5 🏢

We made a big building that was a touristic place where you can go into any ecosystem 🌊🐫🌿in each floor and you could go downstairs by a slide, also for elders they could take an elevator with a great view👀 and last but not least it had a roof garden with very cool views and a Starbucks.

💫This car is a recyclable project since we made this only from some used and recycled materials.

In this project we had lots of fun and we noticed some STEAM skills 🥼that we used like:

🎨Art- We designed this car with our bare hands and made some personal touches to make it more creative and unique

🧠Engineering- We had to think and calculate how it would stay as a structure and how fast and far would it move

🧪Science- We used science in the part where we used the balloon to launch the car

# data[].attributes.body
In here you can find all of our evidences of each task

And AR too!

Through out this month we learn lots of things in the 5 ambits of STEAM and practiced/ developed our abilities in them.

For instance in:

SCIENCE🧪: During our projects we used theory and practice of science like in our balloon powered-car where the power of the air pushes the car forward

TECHNOLOGY💻: Well, in first place obviously for some tasks we used our devices like in the Kahoot, Watch videos etc.. but also more importantly for the AR project.

ENGINEERING🥼: We kind of imagine we used this less than the other abilities but we did used it for the car or the marshmallow challenge and in the imaginary construction of the building. So at the end we used it in task 3 and 5

ART🎨: In the creative artistic part we made the building from the bottom of our head and also in many of the projects we put our own little touches and designs, and lastly in the AR we used and designed some of the figures.

MATHEMATICS🧠: Last but not least we had to measure many things to make them more realistic and convincing or simply just to understand and develop them. We used it in all of our projects

In conclusion, this month was very entretaining and successful since we got to made all the projects and debates and finished it with so many knowledge that we are excited for what’s coming next. We are prepared for the next step and looking forward to the next month!
