Summer flashback – STEM Students triumph!

September 16, 2016/in Blog

One of our favorite memories from the past summer was the STEM Academy students successfully launching the canoe they built from scratch. You may remember when we featured the beginning steps of making their canoe – our students had to carefully measure sheets of wood (https://soundwaters.org/teamwork-in-action/), not to mention put in lots of hard work learning the fractions that would help them make their measurements precise and accurate. After five weeks of hard work, the students were proud to present their finished canoe to their families and guests. Their diligence paid off – the canoe floated beautifully, and all students got to enjoy a ride!
