Van Arsdale's Stem Lab
Lego Wall
We built a Lego wall in the STEM Lab so students can create 3D models of cities on 1 acre plots...and to simply have FUN!
3rd Grade Recycled Inventions
Students were given three days to design, collect recycled materials, and build an invention. This what such a blast!
4th Grade Recycled Vehicles
Students were given three days to design, collect recycled materials, and build a vehicle. Their undestanding of elecric vehicles was astounding!
Tinker Toys
To meet engineering skills we are using Tinker Toys to build specific structures.
Straws and Jax
During the building workshop students can build with Straws and Jax while they wait for their roation with the teacher.
Hot Wheels Raceway
To learn about weight, speed, gravity, and length we have been building tracks and trying out different cars. We hope to pair this with Makey Makey and create timing devices.

We loving using different materials with the Makey Makey!
Cubelets
We are designing trains and to evaluate load size and electrical currents.
Botley
We love coding using a remote!
Marble Maze
It is a thinker! We are using geometry to understand the trojectory of angles and gravity.
Ozobot vs Sphero
R2D2 vs BB8 is really the question!!
