GROUP
Central Park STEAM
We are the Central Park STEAM Robotics Team and Makerspace Creativity Club. Our Robotics Team participates in Wonder League, FIRST LEGO League Jr., VexIQ Challenge, Future League and FIRST LEGO League. Our Makerspace Creativity Club is an experimental training program for students and parent volunteers to support teachers in the classroom integration of making and technology. We are curious, creative and inspired chameleons!!!
We nurture the development of the whole child who is then inspired to continually expand all aspects of his/her being (mind, body, heart) and is empowered to improve the world for others. We build habits of mind and ways of being that are caring, curious, reflective and visionary.
We use innovative systems and structures that provide a highly engaging learning environment.
These include:
1) S.T.E.A.M. (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Math),
2) Project/Problem Based Learning,
3) Blended Learning,
4) Personalized Learning, and
5) Active, Flexible Learning Environments.
