We had a great year! Before my students left we reflected on all projects/activities completed and then I asked the students to summarize the year in their own words. So for my April/May report I'll summarize the end of the year in the words of a few of my students!
"I personally believe that the projects this year were AWESOME! There were enough creative thinking projects to satisfy me and when we did lessons on critical thinking it was on interesting topics"
"The TAG STEAM year was very fun from beginning to end. The interactive projects and art were definitely the highlight."
"The 2017-2018 TAG year was absolutely amazing! My favorite projects were the Mona Lisa Parody and Blackout Poetry. I loved the creativity behind everything we did. Thanks for everything!"
"In conclusion, this year was by far my favorite. I loved the way you incorporated different projects into STEAM. There was not a project that I didn't like. Being a part of this program will definitely be one to remember. I hope that you enjoyed this year as much as I did."
"2017-2018 class hit everything that was going on in the world and I learned so much just from this TAG year. Art was definitely my favorite for the obvious reasons (it helped my creativity by a long shot). The field trips to museums also help my understanding of society as well."
"This year was an AMAZING year! We did many hands-on activities that I enjoyed. My favorite project this year was the "Wrinkle in Time" project. This year was my favorite TAG year since 2nd grade."
The 2017-2018 TAG year was amazing! My favorite project was the vision board project, my least favorite was the science experiment test we did to test the iron in different cereals. Even though I was only here from Jan-May I had a blast!"
"This year was great. I loved the theme, STEAM, and I loved learning about science, art, and technology. (Science is my favorite subject.) I think my favorite was when we talked about Einstein's theories about space and when we watched "A Wrinkle in Time". I also liked doing the STEM career boards. Thanks for a great year!"
"Wild, exciting, rush, thrilling. There are just a few of the words that I would use to describe this amazing school year. Although I am upset about this being my last year I can definitely say that this was one of the best years ever!"
