2018 SUMMER STEAM CAMPS
In 2018, ABC CREATE in partnership with Plum Borough School District hosted a summer STEAM Camp for Teachers! 42 teachers from the Pittsburgh region (and a bit beyond) attended this camp designed specifically for educators who wanted to feel more comfortable integrating STEAM in to their classrooms. Teachers with no STEAM experience attended as did STEAM teacher leaders. All left grateful for the opportunities to enhance their comfort with STEAM and to increase their skills. Most appreciated was the opportunity to network and engage with other inspired educators! Recognizing the need for girls to explore and to develop a STEAM identity in order to persist against the current culture of underrepresentation, ABC CREATE hosted a Girls’ STEAM Camp for rising 6th – 9th grade girls.
