MIAMI| Fourth grade students at St. Kevin School participated in a seed dispersal challenge in early September 2021. With a STREAM (Science Technology Religion Engineering and Math) focus led by their teacher Elsie Free, the students learned about the different ways that seeds travel. They worked in groups to plan various design models for seed dispersal. Once completed, they also tested each model, made improvements and reflected on their final results.
