EXPO
On
Saturday, March 19, 2016
Anglophone West School District and
Fredericton Education Center will host
the 10th annual STEAM Expo at
Nashwaaksis Middle School. We are
excited to continue the incorporation of
the ARTS to our expo. Often, when
students create a STEAM expo project
they have data and findings that they
would like to convey to their audience.

We encourage all students in kindergarten

through grade 4 to join us at STEAM for a
non-competitive day that promotes handson learning in science, technology,
engineering and mathematics.
Elementary students get to proudly display
their projects for other students, teachers,
parents and community members. Then, it is
off for a fun filled day of discovery!
K-4 students spend most of the morning
rotating through exciting Exploration
Stations. These stations will ignite students
passion for science, technology, engineering
and mathematics as they learn in an engaged
environment that is fun and grade
appropriate.
All K-4 students will receive a t-shirt, medal,
certificate, and an opportunity to explore
middle and high school projects. Students
who participate in STEAM Expo 2016 will be
eager to return year after year to engage in
all that STEAMExpo has to offer.
