S.T.E.A.M. Connections
Nature-based learning provide inspiration for engaging students in curriculum-connected S.T.E.A.M. (science, technology, engineering, art, math) activities. For example, students explore how animal adaptations have inspired human innovation, investigate uses for plant fibers, measure environmental conditions, and more. These engaging experiences foster critical thinking, communication, and collaboration skills.
