1:52 June 6-10: 7th Grade Guest Speaker
A special thank you to Decatur parent, Ms. Karen Bucher, who visited our 7th grade Science class to present on her exciting STEAM career, which happens to coincide with our 7th grade class' exploration of biological sciences this year, and recent Bullfrog Dissection Project. Ms. Bucher shared with our class her passion and background for both Art and STEM, which led her to her career as a medical illustrator for the Journal of The American Medical Association, as well as Professor of surgical illustration at UIC's Biomedical Visualization Graduate Program!

This week: 6th grade will have special guest speakers in class on Thursday, as a team of Northwestern University's Engineers Without Borders Chapter will present to both 6th grade classes how they utilize STEM skills to help people around the world as part of EWB, as well as their own passions for STEM in general along with what it's like to be a college student at NU.
7th grade and 8th grade will end the year with a Frog Dissection Investigation, which allows them to apply knowledge and skills that they studied within the biological sciences by exploring similar skills used by STEM career professionals such as medical doctors and surgeons, veterinarians, forensic scientists, ecologists, etc. -
