1st Grade (RES) STEM Projects
Our Ridgeland Elementary School first grade scholars worked through the Japer County School District Science Curriculum document utilizing the new South Carolina 2021 Science standards to create their first nine weeks STEM project! Students worked through the Engineering Design process to design a home with a sturdy structure that could withstand inclement weather during their favorite season. Throughout this unit, students learned why the Earth tilts, why we have seasons, comparisons between day and night, sky patterns, and what happens during the seasons.
