🚀 A behind the scenes look from NASA at one of their RS-25 engines being installed on the Artemis III rocket core stage.

“These engines will help launch the Orion spacecraft and its crew into low Earth orbit, generating more than two million pounds of thrust at liftoff.” 🌎

🧪 Why STEM Matters in Every Classroom 🧬

STEM isn’t just about science and math-it’s about preparing students with the problem-solving, teamwork, and creative thinking skills they’ll use for life. 🧑‍🔬

🙌 When students engage in hands-on STEM, they learn how to:
💪 Tackle challenges with confidence.
🧠 Think critically and creatively.
🗺️ See real-world connections between subjects.

Integrating STEM activities builds curiosity and resilience, helping students see themselves as innovators and problem-solvers-skills that will carry them far beyond the classroom.

✨ More from our wonderful monthly VPK enrichment programming at one of favorite our preschools! Their current unit of study is the five senses, so we started with an awesome story about our five senses and then moved on to mystery bag decoding 💼 Without using their sense of sight, our junior scientist had to reach into their mystery bag and describe what they felt to see if their partner could guess what was inside. 👻 They loved this one!

They say “an object in motion stays in motion”… but nobody said Bill Nye could do this kind of motion! 🕺

✨ STEM + A = STEAM 🎨 and incase you didn’t know, A= Art, which is kind of a BIG deal!

Art gives kids permission to dream BIG, think differently, get messy, take risks, and create something that’s uniquely theirs. 🖍️💡🌈

It’s not just art—it’s creativity, confidence, problem-solving, and imagination in action! 🚀
