STREAM

Science.  Technology.  Reading.  Engineering.  Art.  Mathematics.

 

Welcome to Tangipahoa Parish’s new STREAM bus.

The Tangi STREAMliner was brought to life through grant funding and donations from sponsors. It is a fully functioning STREAM Lab. 

What is STREAM?
STREAM stands for science, technology, reading, engineering, art, and math. STREAM education is a student-centered, inquiry-based interdisciplinary approach to learning. Embedding STREAM learning into a curriculum allows our students to learn vital skills such as problem solving, critical thinking, collaboration and innovation, along with essential technology skill sets.

What are some examples of STREAM activities?
STREAM activities are hands-on and student led. The teacher acts as the facilitator of learning in a STREAM-centered classroom.  Students are given a task or a problem to solve. Students then work together to discuss and test various solutions to the problem.

How does the Tangi STREAMliner Bus support our students and families?
The Tangi STREAMliner offers a connection between school and our families in the community. Tangischools brings the fun and learning to you! The children in our community have the opportunity to engage in meaningful STEM (STREAM) activities with their families, in person and live in action! Facilitators are on stand-by to assist with the exploration process and guide self inquiry and discovery.
