STEAM Project Posts

Jenna and I are creating the base for our STEAM project including a disco ball for the main character.  The topic of our project is to teach kids how to use the 5R's of recycling, in a fun way.  Our audience is the students at Dey.  Our purpose is to persuade people to start recycling more.  One thing we really enjoy about the design process is being able to create something like a cute character and use our imagination.  By Jenna and Corinne.

My partner and I chose to create a cartoon about how to re-use a broken item or something that is very old and turn it into a new item.  Our audience is kids and adults who are into recycling.  Our purpose is to show how to use re-use items.  Our favorite part of the design cycle is making the cartoon, especially piecing it together.  By Matt and Hamish

We are creating a project to inform JBD students and staff about the 5R's of recycling.  Our project includes a poster, a script, questions, pictures, and lights.  We chose to create a video and a poster because we think kids will be excited by the poster and video.  Our favorite part of the design process is creating products.  By Claire and Jordan



We chose to create a game called Recycle-Ball to teach younger kids how to recycle in a fun way.  The game is played by answering questions.  For every correct answer you get a shot.  Our favorite part of the design process is creating the backboard and writing the questions.  We would like to take this to a grade 3 class and try it with Mrs. Johnson's students!
