OJR Elementary STEAM

@strawbees We reached out last year about purchasing replacement straws for our students, and you advised that we should stay tuned. (We don't need any more connectors.) Any chance a straw replacement pack will be available soon?

#HourOfCode continues w/ @OJRsteam this week, and for the first time ever, elementary students had the opportunity to fly drones! Be sure to check out video highlights via our YouTube channel - youtu.be/xnJtu8YhcOE and via Instagram at bit.ly/3uFNBG4 #OwenJAllTheWay

Can you design a parachute that can hover in our SLAM wind tunnel for 20 seconds? These sixth graders can! It’s harder than you might think. Many first attempts flew right out the top of the tunnel, but these kids never gave up! instagram.com/reel/ClCzR-rDU…

We used Strawbees at East Vincent to build tetrahedrons. This class built one that almost touches the ceiling! instagram.com/p/ClAQN2bL3Ok/…

@OwenJRobertsFC 5th grade students in @LaBarberaFC created prototypes that would serve as a game/activity out of limited materials.

Students in Mrs. Bevan’s class @OJRSDEC participated in National STEAM day this week by exploring their curiosities with Lego. Students worked in pairs to complete a unique challenge.

Students at East Vincent began engineering structures using Strawbees today! instagram.com/p/CkjpVWxvRFi/…

@OwenJRobertsFC students in 3rd and 5th grade participated in their first STEAM lesson today at French Creek! They imagined and created many different things from an array of materials!

@btcostello05 @Rdene915 Thank you!

@Rdene915 @btcostello05 Are either of you still CoSpaces EDU ambassadors? Can you help me get access to a free trial code for pro and the Merge Cube add-on?

We’re wrapping up our current robotics unit this week. Can’t wait to see what’s up next for our STEAM students! instagram.com/p/CkeYPGNvD53/…

6th grade students at West Vincent participated in an engaging activity where they created their own Plinko game using @3Duxdesign cardboard pieces.@Ojrscience @WVElementary

This week teachers at West Vincent learned about the Design Process with an engaging Dash activity. They had a great time designing a way to get students home from school with the @Lego they collected! @WVElementary @Ojrscience

Round 1 playoffs begin today @ 3:30 PM for OJR RED & Gray. LET'S GO!!!!! Watch live @ twitch.tv/ojr_esports @PSELesports @KammasKersch

Fourth grade students @ojrsdnc are working on understanding and navigating Dash robots. Ask them about Dash features!

This week we began our robotics unit. The @OwenJRobertsEV students learned to safely navigate a roundabout with their Dash robots.

@OwenJRobertsEV 6th graders used the Engineering Design Process to create Plinko games using @3Duxdesign. Check out this team’s creation!

@ojrsdnc 4th grade students are using their knowledge of coding to program the amazing Dash robots! We even had a chance to put on a little light show! #dashanddot

@OwenJRobertsEV teachers learned all about STEAM and engineering design as they completed a challenge with Lego and Dash! Some of the supplies were made possible through a grant from @OJREdFoundation. Many thanks!

Fourth and Fifth graders at @WVElementary learned about block coding using @scratch . They learned how to customize sprites, code to change the color and size of their sprites, and added sounds.
