What Inspires Me?

Perseverance is very important to me. It is also something that can be really hard to do. Some of the people who inspire me have persevered through life-threatening injuries. One of the many people that have inspired me to persevere has been Bethany Hamilton. Hamilton has shown that no amount of injury can be a setback and to always power through.

What Is STEAM

STEAM is a program for students who want to do project-based learning. STEAM stands for Science, Technology, Arts, and Math. these are the subjects that are included in the program. There are many experiments and opportunities to build things. So far my peers and I have done many projects that include both science and math. As well as many other projects. We have been able to learn about our ecosystems and measure PH levels in the water. STEAM is an opportunity to learn about science and math in a new way.

Why I Chose STEAM

When I heard of STEAM I was excited to join it. I love creating and designing things and I thrive in project-based learning. I was excited to take the science course and have a larger chance to do more science experiments.  immediately I thought that STEAM would be a really fun experience.
