STEM2 - Mrs. Hardy

Rediker Grade Book Access

Preparing students to enter STEM careers in the future is not enough. The integration of Religion and the Arts into STEM content areas merges 21st century teaching and learning with the timeless truths of faith and beauty in all of the subject areas. 

All students in STEM2 grade 1-8 have been working on research projects relating to black history. Grades 3-8th were giving Famous African Americans to research and a research guide to complete. After the research was done, each grade was assigned a different project to complete on the person he/she researched.

• Grade 3- Lapbooks of the person he/she researched

• Grade 4- Black History Month Banner

• Grade 5-  Paper Facebook page & Encyclopedia Entry 

• Grade 6-  Powerpoint Presentation, iMovie or Prezi 

• Grade 7- 2 minute informational commercial 

Grades 1 & 2 have also been working on black history, however, for the younger grades we researched people together as a class. We have researched; Ruby Bridges, Sojourner Truth, Rosa Parks, Harriet Tubman, Martin Luther King, Frederick Douglas and George Washington Carver. After using a few weeks to research these important African Americans, the second and third graders were paired up in teams to play Black History jeopardy.
