Hands on STEM Learning at STARBASE
Amber Wolf wanted her students to explore STEM related contexts through real-world, hands-on experience. Her 5th grade students took part in the Department of Defense program – STARBASE at Davis Monthan Air Force Base. Certified teachers facilitated hands-on STEM activities over the course of five visits.
Students stayed highly engaged throughout the STARBASE experience as indicated by nearly perfect attendance on field trip days. Even the abilities of the most reluctant learners shone through as they participated and engaged at a very high level.
