Library STEAM Centers

It's safe to say most students really enjoy their time at STEAM centers. At South Prairie, students work at a center on their check out day. I get asked to take a photo of students at their centers at least twice a week! It makes me truly happy to see students proud of their time and work in the library. Here are some of the pictures I've taken so far this year!

I really don't remember what these are called. I ordered them from Scholastic (with book fair profits 🥳), and students have been so creative with them!

The Mix a Million bird puzzle is a hit- even with the older kids! There are 10 birds to put together. All of the pieces are interchangeable, so students can make funky colored or wacky bodied birds!

These brown blocks are very lightweight and hard to build with. I have challenge cards with these blocks.

Above: one of the challenge cards asks students to write their name out in blocks.


Right and Below: both pictures show students completing this challenge: Can you build a structure 25 blocks high?

Right: Students constructed a very tall tower using Structures blocks. This is actually a still from the slow-motion video of the destruction of the tower!

Left: PowerClix are magnetic shapes. This student created a robot!
