Tiffany Marshall's third-grade class at Willow Drive Elementary School participated in a STEAM Hour Thursday afternoon. Each grade level completed standards-based challenges during the hour that demonstrate values in science, technology, engineering, art and mathematics. Marshall's students were split into a yellow and blue team, given a piece of construction paper, scissors and tape and tasked with making the longest chain link. The exercise encouraged cooperation and teamwork.
