STEAM Day

STEAM DAY | MARCH 16, 2018
STEAM Day, the annual lead-up to DESIGNORAMA, brings together all Drew students to dive deeper into STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math) with fun, interactive activities, experiments, performances and games.

STEAM DAY 2018: Cause and Effect 


The theme for STEAM Day 2018 was Cause and Effect! This year's event focused on the different ways our future STEAM leaders can affect change on their bodies, minds, environments and futures. At the EA, Drew Eagles participated in challenges encouraging them to them to use concepts of coding in creative and collaborative ways, built their very own engineering designs, learned about the cause and effect relationship of diet and exercise on their body and created their own art and engineering masterpieces. Students at the Junior and Senior academy were treated to a TEDy talk from former Drew Eagle, Andre Baron, who shared his journey through the movie industry. Our students made connections from the arts to coding while learning and having a blast!

​What was STEAM Day 2017 like for our PreK through Grade 5 Drew Eagles? As one student put it, "AWESOME!"

Our future STEAM leaders navigated their way through a coding obstacle course in the gym and programmed robots to move on command. They soldered mini flashlights, constructed straw rockets and digitally illustrated their own stories. They raced Nerdy Derby cars, designed their dream playground and couldn’t believe their eyes during a science magic show. They danced, sang, invented, coded and made music. Most importantly, they learned and had fun doing it.


STEAM DAY 2017 AT THE JUNIOR + SENIOR ACADEMY

STEAM Day at the Junior + Senior Academy campus is all about making new, unexpected and mind-broadening connections between science, technology, engineering, arts and math.
Drew scholars in the upper grades  experience STEAM Day through hands-on workshops and inspirational talks that cover a range of engaging topics—including game design, photography, communicable diseases, the cause and effect relationship of architecture, and the intersection of physics and music, to name a few. Students will have the opportunity to digitally compose their own music, explore the ever-popular STEAM Truck, make visual “comments” on the Yates building, work with a hip hop industry insider, enter virtual reality and much more, all while uncovering new possibilities in STEAM. ​
