2. TEAMS defined... (STEM + Arts) x Collaboration = TEAMS Think like a Technologist = Select Tools Think like an Engineer = Design Process Think like an Artist = Creative Expression Think like Mathematician = Critical Thinking Think like a Scientist = Questioning

8. Cyber T.E.A.M.S. Department Of Defense Education Agency Grant -2011 STEM learning, as broadly defined by the CYBER-TEAMS initiative, means more than memorizing scientific facts or learning mathematical processes. STEM learning is a mindset; an educational philosophy for how students approach challenges with curiosity and solve them with rigor. We embrace the STEM to STEAM movement. Integrating art and design brings beauty, meaning, and inspiration to traditional STEM fields. The letters in STEAM have been rearranged to form “TEAMS,” because teamwork is vital to professional success today.challengesSTEM to STEAM We believe that student collaboration at the earliest grade levels is essential for all students to benefit from CYBER-TEAMS. We believe that teacher professional development should be designed to spark threshold moments in students’ lives. We believe that student learning should be directly relevant to 21st Century living and career success. CyberTEAMS

12. Physical Science Lesson First Grade Study about Sound Students were challenged to find the loudest or quietest area in our school. Groups walked around the building carrying iPads. Using the Decibel 10th, students collected data. Once we had walked around the building, we gathered back in the lab and arranged the data in a chart to discover the decibel differences. Graphs were created to compare the data.
