My students, colleagues and I had a great night co-hosting a STEM Night at Coral Cliffs Elementary School. Learn more about our event in the local new story (click here). Students and families explored the following STEM Theme: Diverse Living Communities – Past, Present and Future through a variety of activities. The Dinosaur Discovery Site shared their fossils and artifacts from Utah’s ancient past. The Red Cliffs Desert Reserve program presented a programs on plants and animals in this region. We also had several programs from Utah Tech University sharing their programs on robotics (K-12 STEM K-12 Outreach Center) and STEM mapping technology (UT GIS Program). Charline Para (Navajo Nation) with the District’s Title VI program provided information on the history of the region’s land and people. Students constructed a paper village and programmed miniature robots to navigate streets and paths in a series of challenges. The College of Education’s future teachers had a variety of math and science activities for elementary students to explore as well. We had a fun night of STEM!
