How do I set up a STEAM Day?
There are many different ways these days can be set up. Split kids into small groups and rotate through the activities over a one day period, or spread it out over two weeks (one day per week). You can also do one center/activity a day. Many of the activities are independent, so that the STEAM Days can be done with one teacher. The activities can also be done whole class if enough materials are prepared.
We hope you and your students have fun with the STEAM Days! If you have any questions, please e-mail us at kinderbrations@gmail.com. Be sure to check out the thumbnails for each day and download the previews to see everything that is included in these resources.
