T.K. Stone students put STEM skills to good use
Students at T.K. Stone Middle School Thursday got hands-on experience in STEM education and helping members of their community.
Students in Jennifer Weaver’s class, with help from Heartland Ambucs, assembled two tricycles for children with disabilities.
Weaver said she met Heartland Ambucs volunteer Darrell Olson through Wesley Hilltop.
“We had a couple of bikes that they brought on Thursday, and I had the classes split up into two groups, and they kind of rotated groups around so that each kid had a little bit of buy-in with getting to help assemble the bikes together,” Weaver said.
Weaver said the project offered an opportunity to put the skills the Project Lead the Way students learn in their STEM classes to use, but it also gave them an opportunity to help beyond the classroom.
“A lot of times, unless they’re involved in specific clubs or other community groups that do service for other things, they don’t get the option to be able to do that, and so I think it was a great learning experience to kind of do something that was more about somebody else,” Weaver said.
Weaver said she is proud of the response of her students, and hopes they can contribute again in the future.
“I was a little, maybe, anxious, just to see, because they were using different tools that they’ve never used before, and this was kind of a little bit out of their comfort zone somewhat, but they kind of dove in and once they got started, they were hooked,” Weaver said.
