Wellford Academy of Science and Technology - Where Dedication Meets Innovation

🌪️🌦️ Wacky Weather STEM Showcase at Wellford Academy! 🌍⚡ Wesley the Wolf was very concerned when he realized we didn’t have a severe weather plan—so our students jumped into action! Each grade level became weather experts, researching different severe weather events and creating safety plans: 🌩️ K5: Thunderstorms 🌪️ 1st Grade: Tornadoes (with exciting rotations!) ❄️ 2nd Grade: Blizzards 🌀 3rd Grade: Hurricanes 🌍 4th Grade: Earthquakes 🔥 5th Grade: Wildfires To take learning to the next level, we used AI technology to generate custom reading comprehension passages and math problems connected to each weather pattern. Hands-on STEM learning + real-world problem-solving = one epic showcase! Great job, Wolfpack! Wesley can rest easy knowing we’re prepared for whatever weather comes our way! 🌬️💨 Check out Facebook for all the pictures!
