National STEM/STEAM Day
In honor of STEAM Day, our students PK-Kindergarten completed colorful Mandala artworks in technology class. They practiced their mouse skills while choosing colors that would bring their individual artworks to life. Each area of the Mandala had to be carefully clicked by the mouse courser in order to color the specific areas.
Students also practiced saving their Mandala designs to Google Drive and finally choosing a printer to print them in color.
