Last Friday, May 19, the students of the Umatilla STEAM Academy Afterschool Program had an amazing opportunity to travel to the Shiki Restaurant in Hermiston, OR. This field trip was a part of their "all things Anime" class, which includes learning about the history of Anime, watching movies, practicing their drawing skills, developing stories, and, of course, indulging in their favorite cuisine - Sushi! For many of the students, it was not only their first time eating Sushi but also their first time using chopsticks. Thank you to the STEAM Academy for making this experience possible for our students! — El pasado viernes 19 de mayo, los estudiantes del programa Umatilla STEAM Academy tuvieron la increíble oportunidad de viajar al restaurante Shiki en Hermiston, OR.

Last week, the After School STEAM students had a blast! They created "seed bombs'' using soil and seeds, and then tossed them into different areas around the high school track. The students are eagerly waiting to see bursts of colors that will hopefully pop up in the coming weeks from the wildflowers. In addition, the students also had a great time exploring scientific concepts such as density properties and osmosis. — ¡La semana pasada los estudiantes de STEAM de After School se divirtieron mucho! Crearon "bombas de semillas" usando tierra y semillas, y luego las plantaron en diferentes áreas alrededor de la pista de la escuela secundaria.
