The STEAM showcase included demonstrations of 3-D printing, electronic snap circuits, slime creation, and Code 'N' Go Mouse systems which was led by Darnell Frazier and Se'Sean Shim.
The "Art" in STEAM was led by Alana Esaw and Zyna Blanks who guided parents and guests from NIKE through a gallery walk of QLC art, expression, and imagination for 2018.
Ethan Holloway manned the Earth Science exhibit, and explained volcano design, building, and eruptions.
IXL software program was presented by Rah'Myia Anderson and
Neveah Royal who explained the standards-based skills they are able to target and use for projects.
Chess improves children's critical thinking and problem solving skills. Ky'Maris Jackson
and Jamarree Hood discussed - and demonstrated - using chess as a critical thinking tool.
Rashean Smith provided details of his science project that was exhibited at the Thomas Alva Edison Regional Science and Inventors Fair.
Q kids did an excellent job of of presenting information to the parents and guests as they described the movement to push STEAM initiatives to the forefront of QLC activity. We would like to thank our many partners such as Hodges University, FGCU, the Thomas Alva Edison Regional Science Fair Steering committee, and the Lee County School District for their continued support.
