STEM Projects

For Students in Grades 4 - 12

The projects shared here are "Do-It-Yourself" Guides to Promote STEM Skills and Awareness.  They reflect the variety of interests and skills in our K-12 group, and are shared here for the benefit of teachers, students, and experiential learners of all ages.  While each guide contains materials lists and step-by-step procedures, we encourage you to pursue the learning goals as you see fit - substituting materials, tinkering, and exploring concepts as your interest leads.
