At Roe Valley Integrated Primary School we love all things STEAM!
What is STEAM, I hear you ask?
STEAM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics. STEAM focuses on enquiry-based learning and it is aimed to:
STEAM gives children the chance to explore aspects of SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING, ART and MATHS.
It can be about maths puzzles or even engineering.
Children are naturally curious and often ask profound questions about themselves and The World Around Us. STEAM helps pupils to explore and find age-appropriate answers to some of these big questions. Our aim is to help improve team work and leadership skills, improve confidence and engagement in STEAM as well as increased motivation to study STEAM.
