More pictures of 8th Grade Stem visiting the Challenger Learning Center. Students got to participate in a live simulation on an immersive space mission to Mars. Students worked in teams and were provided the opportunity to participate in Mission Control and in the Space Craft. Students were given tasks to communicate with each other and had to be completed. When students were not participating in the live simulation, they were in a separate location completing stem activities and learning about an engineer's life from NASA. It was a fun filled day and a GREAT learning experience.
