Day 2 of STREAM was naval architecture. Students tested cans of Coke and Diet Coke to see which would sink or float. Students watched dancing raisins in Sprite to learn about density and buoyancy. Students then designed Penny Boat hulls that would float while carrying a heavy load. Day 3 was Simple Machines and students practiced using tools and fasteners.
On the first day of STREAM, students learned about civil engineering and first designed bridges with paper, then constructed bridges using a STEM bridge kits.
