Mrs. Stevenson’s social studies class at BHE brought history to life through a STEAM-integrated project, creating beautiful mosaic vases while studying Greek life and art. As part of their exploration of ancient Greece, students learned about the significance of mosaics in Greek culture and applied their knowledge through hands-on creativity. Using various materials, they designed and assembled their own mosaic vases, blending science, technology, engineering, art, and math to enhance their understanding. This engaging STEAM activity made learning both fun and meaningful, allowing students to connect history with artistic expression.
