Congratulations to the 2023 LIU STEM Design Challenge champions, The Environmental Eagles. They will be presenting their “Pollution Preventer and Purifier” design in May at the state competition! @LIU12_STEM @dasdleib
Currently presenting our design that takes pollution from factory smokestacks to power a water purifier. This design can help solve global problems of pollution and climate change. @LIU12_STEM @dasdleib #STEMinPA
The Leib Environmental Eagles are getting ready to compete at this year’s STEM Design Competition at @LIU12_STEM . Looking forward to presenting our “Pollution Preventer and Purifier” design. @dasdleib #STEMinPA
This image of @dasdleib was taken by students in our drone club! It is great to have kids outside using the technology and working together. #STEMinPA @LIU12_STEM @DJIGlobal
Today, the first round of buttons were passed out to students who passed the test and demonstrated their knowledge of being ready to fly a drone. Next steps are getting them outside to fly. @dasdleib @LIU12_STEM @LeibPto
4th Grade students designed a fair experiment by figuring out what type of feeder birds at Leib like better. Students measured and collected data to figure out our birds preferred the tube feeder. @dasdleib
5th graders starting the year off with some Gummy bear science. Students are learning the importance of having a control group and how to write a good hypothesis. #STEM #science #experiments #5thgrade #leibstem #leibelementary #dasd
Our main event of this year’s STEM Showdown was creating a gondola to safely bring battery “people” down the mountain. Students also created blueprints and were judged on creativity, communication and safety. @LeibPto @dasdleib @LIU12_STEM #STEMinPA
This year’s STEM Showdown featured a magnet race. Students used attraction and repulsion to finish in the fastest time. @dasdleib @LIU12_STEM @LeibPto #STEMinPA
Travity of the Science Guys of Baltimore did an AMAZING job kicking off our annual STEM Showdown. We are looking forward to a day of designing, building, coding and creating! @dasdleib @LIU12_STEM @scienceguysbalt #STEMinPA
Today the Kinetic Turbo Turners were named state runner-ups in the STEM Design Challenge State Competition in the Grades 4-5 division. Their design uses ocean waves to make a hybrid ship causing less fossil fuel reliance. #LeibPROUD @dasdleib @LIU12_STEM @moceanenergy @DoverSD
Congratulations to the Leib Elementary Rebel Raccoons for their 7th place finish in the 5th and 6th Grade York County Envirothon competition. Way to bring home a ribbon and represent Leib well! @dasdleib @yorkcountypa @YorkCountyParks
At our recent “Spring Fling,” 4th Grade students worked together to build a boat out of Peeps. Creativity and ingenuity were on full display in meeting this challenge! @dasdleib @LIU12_STEM @PEEPSANDCOMPANY @PEEPSBrand
CONGRATS to the Kinetic Turbo Turners, 4th and 5th Grade champs in the annual LIU STEM Design Challenge. Their design utilizes the power of ocean waves to create a hybrid ship improving transportation. We are so excited for states in May! @dasdleib @LIU12_STEM @moceanenergy
Today is “Mystery Box” day. Students were given a box of materials to answer the question “Can I make a light bulb light?” Some objects were useful while others were not. Perseverance and collaboration were in full display to solve this problem. @dasdleib @LIU12_STEM
What a great event! Thank you for allowing us to come and observe. We look forward to implementing some ideas at our annual elementary STEM Showdown.
Students at the High School are fully engaged in the 29th Annual Physics Olympics this afternoon! @DtownHighSchool
The day’s most efficient cup (91%) came from Block 3 today. This design used insulation and tin foil to find success! All students today did an amazing job applying the engineering design process including reflection and analysis. #STEMinPA @dasdleib @LIU12_STEM
Block 2’s STEM insulated cup design challenge winner was 83% efficient with her design by using cotton pads, bubble wrap, aluminum foil and aluminum tape. Multiple students mentioned how much fun building and designing can be. #FutureEngineers #STEMinPA @dasdleib @LIU12_STEM
Congrats to our Block 1 STEM insulated cup design cup challenge winner. By using rice, hand warmers, styrofoam and foil, her design was 89% efficient in keeping water warm. Great discussion had about what did and didn’t work. @dasdleib @LIU12_STEM #STEMinPA
This week, our 4th Grade team met on Zoom with a design engineer from Mocean Energy in Edinburgh, Scotland, to discuss our wave powered hybrid cargo ship design for the upcoming LIU STEM Design Challenge. What a great opportunity for our students! @moceanenergy @dasdleib
