A and E + STEM!



     Here are some scenes from the A and E professional development that was artfully delivered by Shanna Esposito and Theresa Circelli!  It was a collaborative effort at perfecting some new STEM related A and E lessons!



Updating the lesson on the fly to improve the lesson based on teacher feedback!  


A lot of thought went into these lessons.

Reviewing lesson materials.

The leaning tower of pasta!

A winning tower design.

An innovative and elegant solution

A valiant effort but to no avail!  :-)
