Spooc-tacular STEM!

October 31, 2025

In the spirit of Halloween, kindergarten students at Dogwood Elementary School put on their engineering hats and designed monsters! Students learned that when engineers design they have to follow certain criteria and constraints.  Each kindergartner was asked to design a monster that included a body, arms, legs and eyes! 

At the end of the lesson, we noticed that all of our monsters were different.  This was a perfect time to remind students that just like our monsters, we are all different, but we all belong!
