Participate in Nea's annual STEAM Day!
STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math) Day will inspire kids to explore, create, and build and to learn through hands-on activities and interactions.
Activities will be designed for Lower Village learners. Upper Village learners are invited to lead activities.
Please sign up to host a table with an activity. Here are some possibilities (or create your own!):
Almost Real Spiderweb Mobile
Scribble machines
Engineering paper bridges

Other project ideas:
Kitchen chemistry (such as vinegar, baking soda, and food coloring)
