BMS students are so excited to begin this new STEAM-infused project happening this quarter!
Overview of the project-
During Q2 and Q3, some STEAM classes (Science,
Technology, Engineering, Art and Math) are planning a multi-grade,
multi-subject Periodic Table sculpture project that will tie in with a mural being planned in the media
center. The Periodic
Table Sculpture will be a permanent piece of art for our building.
Students in 7th grade tech and science as well as 8th grade
science and art
students are all going to invest
in parts of the planning, research and/or creation of the table
sculpture.
In order to kick this off this multi-grade, multi-subject collaborative project,
7th
and 8th
grade students will be watching Nova's Hunting the Elements documentary this
Friday afternoon.
Today in 8th grade art class, we are matching the 10 groups of the periodic table to our 10 material choices. Mirror, leather, granite, glass tile, shiny and burnished metal, Plexiglass, stone tile and two wood species will make up our giant table of elements sculpture. We'll be posting the results of the material survey soon.
