Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics! Our STEAM week was a great success!

At the beginning of October the bilingual course students had the chance to carry out hands-on projects and the result was fantastic: recycled paper, volcanoes erupting, roller coasters and a lot of other activities to help them think out of the box. After that, groups were invited to visit each other’s classrooms and presented in English what they had done! Take a look at this amazing event:

GRADE 1 - Recycled Paper ♻️

Students went to the Arts classroom and learned new vocabulary by cutting, blending and mixing wet paper to make a recycled sheet. - Ms Bianca, Ms Deborah and Ms Joana.

GRADE 2 - Robots 🤖

By studying paralympic athletes and robots, Grade 2 students discussed what anyone can achieve with a little help from technology. Arts and crafts developed based on a very relevant subject! - Mr Vinícius.

GRADE 3A - Stone Age ⚒️

What was life like in the Stone Age? Students did research on the prehistoric animals, humans, tools and environment and came up with interesting ideas for their presentation. They got very engaged! - Ms Leandra

GRADE 5A - Soapbox Cars 📦🏎️

Morning students gathered information about an African artist and used it to decorate an engineering project: soapbox cars! Telling their stories in English was an opportunity to develop social and speaking skills. - Ms Cláudia.

GRADE 5C - Magnets 🧲

In the evening, children investigated how magnets work and transformed the information into a game which was played with paper clips. The other groups were very keen on learning more about it. - Ms Amanda.

GRADE 6 - Natural Disasters: The Role of Water 🌊

Instead of studying about water and tsunamis only using coursebooks, Grade 6 students made a YouTube video to develop their computer skills. Why should one learn English only in a school classroom? 😉 - Ms Joana.
