STEM to STEAM is the theme of the event
EAST PROVIDENCE — On Thursday, April 27, Waddington Elementary held its "One School, One Book Night with Mad Science."
The evening was a book fair, and special to this year was the inclusion of "STEM to STEAM" art projects encompassing engineering, simple machines, biology, biodiversity, animal adaptations, food webs among other disciplines.
Many of the displays were interactive, allowing viewers to become "leaf detectives", go "fish" for freshwater species, follow a frog tongue to its prey or contribute sightings to a biodiversity board.
Students collected data, graphed, tested, illustrated and made models, combining art with science, math and reading comprehension, showing their results during the event.
