COUNT - Math & Art Fusion is designed for 4th-6th graders as an engaging and hands-on educational experience that seamlessly integrates mathematics and art. Students will use a variety of tools, such as sliding compasses, circle rulers, rulers, and protractors, to explore and create artistic pieces that are inspired by mathematical principles and the fundamental elements of art. This program aims to foster a deeper understanding of both subjects while encouraging creativity and critical thinking.

The Digital Media Academy program introduces students to educational technology through subjects like photography, videography, and other forms of digital media. This program seeks to boost confidence in technology for work, learning, and daily life. Students will learn how to use equipment such as digital cameras and editing software to make connections between technology, nature, real world concepts, and careers. DiMA currently has two rotating curriculums, Photography and Stop Motion Animation.

Calling all STEM SUPERHEROS!

We need YOU to join the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (Student Heroes Intervening for Ecological and Long-Lasting Design)! Work with your team to make decisions on how to address natural and human-caused disasters that are impacting our world. Put on your safety glasses and thinking caps as you investigate civil, mechanical, and chemical engineering concepts and methods. Model disasters to understand their effects and design potential mitigations and remediations. Are you ready to get messy with science concepts?

Greetings, Global Citizens! Do you care about the Earth and your community? Do you want to explore the ways you can make an impact through renewable and sustainable construction and energy choices? Join us to investigate solar, wind, and water power as renewable sources of energy. Debate which sources you would want to power your home or school. Finish the semester with the ECOBuilders Challenge to put all your new knowledge into practice as you design and build the next generation of green shelters and market your ideas to potential investors.

Students will engage in several hands-on activities like making a bird feeder and building a dam to see how it blocks flowing water!

4th grade topics include: brain processing of senses, rock formations, energy transfer, wave properties, Earth's resources, light reflection, weathering and erosion.

The Math Fluency OST curriculum engages students in fun and interactive activities that develop number sense and understanding of addition and subtraction. The activities are designed for students to build a strong foundation for basic arithmetic through games and hands-on activities. The instructional materials are aligned with CCSS-M standards in grades 1-2. Third grade students who need additional support in early numeracy are also encouraged to participate. The instructional activities are based on research of math learning trajectories and Math Recovery intervention strategies.

This program uses the online computer game Math Snacks, which is a full suite of animations and games. Every Math Snack game includes a companion activity that are designed to connect the learning in the game or animation to classroom learning activities. This program addresses critical content including number sense, ratio, proportions, measurement, scale factor and pre-algebra. All Math Snacks games, activities, and animations are aligned with the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM)

SciGirls draws on cutting-edge research about what engages girls in STEM learning and careers. SciGirls seeks to help students develop positive STEM Identities, and the confidence to envision themselves as innovative problem-solvers. The videos, interactive website, and hands-activities work together to address a singular but powerful goal: to inspire, enable, and maximize STEM learning and participation for all students, especially girls, with an eye toward future STEM careers.

The SEMAA program focuses on teaching students science, engineering, mathematics and aeronautics in a setting where students can make connections to real-world application and improving their environments. Students participate in hands-on STEM-based activities that encourage them to find an interest in science and mathematics while learning about the world they live in. Key topics include gardening, recycling, wind power, and the water cycle.

Story Explorations engages students in activities that pique curiosity, foster creative thinking, and enhance comprehension. Hands-on activities are related to stories of a variety of high quality picturebooks and use language arts, drama, writing, movement, art, math, science and engineering as a way to better comprehend the story plots. Story Explorations has four rotating curriculums, two exoloring fairytales (Red Ridin’ in the Hood and Juan and the Pinto Bean Stalk), and the other two exploring mythology (Tlacuilolli: An Aztec Legend and Greek Mythology).

Electives provide opportunities for schools to tailor programming to fit their needs. This means you will be creating your own curriculum and requesting materials for your program, but don’t worry you won’t do this alone; you will work with your school coordinator and elective coordinator to bring your adventure to life. Electives provide opportunities for schools to customize other non-exclusive STEM-based curriculum in visual and performing arts like dance and mariachi, tutoring, athletics, language, technology, or any topic that addresses a school need for academic learning and enrichment.
