Huge thank you to STEAM Academy at McCluer South-Berkeley High School for inviting us to your College & Career Fair! We had such a great time speaking with the juniors and seniors about career pathways in owning childcare centers and working with children.

It was extra special when Ms. Douglas, an alumna of UMSL, stopped by their table and even met another proud UMSL alum – their recruiter! 💛❤️

Science is all around us! Today our young scientists learned how plants, like chrysanthemums, need water to grow and thrive. Hands-on experiences like watering flowers help children understand cause and effect, responsibility, and the importance of caring for living things.

🎨 Component A: Art 🎨

This week we explored Color Theory and had so much fun learning about primary and secondary colors! The children became little scientists as they mixed colored water with food coloring to discover what new colors they could create. 🌈

After experimenting, we used our new knowledge to create beautiful paintings on canvases. 🖌️ Each child got to express their creativity while applying what they learned about colors.

It was a perfect mix of science + art = creativity in action!
