Welcome to the 2015-16 school year! I am very excited for a busy and learning-filled year in Science and STEAM!
This summer I had an experience that blended the STEAM disciplines in very interesting ways as I travelled to Istanbul, Turkey and took a workshop in the ancient Turkish art (and science!) of ebru painting. Ebru relies on an understanding of the relative densities of natural pigments, paints and water, as well as an ability to properly mix in the right proportions of pine resin and sheep gallbladder extract! I look forward to sharing my learning with my students this year.
