Today we launched our year-long STEAM project! Students started by finding a problem we have at Tritt. Our class came came up with overflowing garbage and empty recycling bins. We then researched where our garbage goes after it leaves our school and asked ourselves, “How can we reduce the amount of trash at Tritt?” Scroll down for some pictures of our research in action and check Seesaw for some fun evidence!
