Independent studies students create aurora art at STEAM workshop
– Students and families participating in the Independent Studies program at San Benito Elementary School in Atascadero recently participated in a STEAM workshop led by their teacher, Mrs. Manley, according to the latest newsletter from the Atascadero Unified School District. During the workshop, students melded watercolor techniques with their understanding of the Aurora Borealis to produce artistic creations.
The session saw scholars engaging in hands-on activities aimed at integrating science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics (STEAM) concepts into their artistic endeavors. Mrs. Manley guided the learners through the process, fostering creativity and encouraging exploration of scientific phenomena.
Participants delved into the intricate patterns and colors of the Northern Lights, applying their newfound knowledge to their artwork. The workshop provided an opportunity for students to deepen their understanding of both artistic techniques and natural phenomena.
