Greek Day leads Collaboration with STEAM at Oliver Middle

Essential collaboration with the STEAM program and the initiative of Mr. Keel, Social Studies teacher (Grade 6), led us to work as a team to celebrate the week where ancient Greece was successfully highlighted.

Ms. Broeder, Ms. Riand and Ms. Richardson were also a part of the events and not only dressed as the grandiose Goddesses they are, they brought a heightened degree of inspiration to this meaningful activity.

My STEAM students designed and built the architecture of a Parthenon facade -- emphasizing the columns and designs and the mathematical calculations of Greek art.

Other students made Olympic torches, Olive wreaths and Spartan masks.

A session of Olympic Games was the highlight of the day (Thank you Coack K!).

Next year we'll host a full week of events, with more collaborative activities, discoveries and new learning.
