茎: 科学. 技术. 工程. 数学.
From 较低的学校 to 上学校 the STEM与工程 Program at Farragut offers students an opportunity to explore and experience engineering through a comprehensive curriculum that emphasizes critical thinking, 创造力, 创新, 解决现实问题.
较低的学校
STEM与工程
工程是基础®
Kindergarten and 1st grade all complete 科学, 技术, and Math activities based on the STEM curriculum. Specific 工程 classes are introduced in 2nd grade. 工程是基础®(EiE) curriculum fosters engineering and technological literacy by integrating engineering and technology concepts and skills with elementary science topics as well as literacy and social studies.
较低的学校 Kindergarten-7th Grade STEM 课程:
- Kindergarten spends the first semester learning how to use the keyboard and the mouse, then spends the rest of the year learning the basics of coding.
- 1st grade learns how to type properly and is introduced to their Google Drive accounts.
- 2nd grade designs and creates hand pollinators and sturdy walls, and learns how to use their Google Drive accounts and the 工具 within.
- 3rd grade designs their own play-doh, 桥梁, 报警电路, and learns the basics of coding to program Dash and Dot robots.
- 四年级学生做了一个太阳能烤箱, 设计的风车, 照明系统, 青蛙的栖息地, and learns how to code using the Alice computer programming software written by Carnegie Mellon University.
- 5th grade designs simple machines, 降落伞, 潜水器, 和磁悬浮列车, and learns how to code websites and games using code.org的课程.
- 6th-grade 工程 students create 3D models of objects using the Autocad Inventor software program and learn how to program circuit boards to create interactive games.
- 7th-grade 工程 students build and program different structures using VEX robotics kits and RobotC programming software. They also learn how to use animation software to create their own animations.
低年级STEM实验室
The 低年级STEM实验室 includes 21 robust computers and 4 large collaborative work stations for group activities and projects. The computers come equipped with Autocad Inventor, RobotC, and Alice Computer Programming software on each one.
机器人俱乐部
Students in the Lego 机器人俱乐部 build their own robots using Lego Mindstorm pieces. Students are then programming their robots to complete different complicated tasks.

高中STEM实验室
法拉古特海军上将学院’s 高中STEM实验室 has a fully equipped design lab with the 工具 and 材料 needed for students to eng年龄 in a truly unique experience. Students can bring their ideas to life with actual working prototypes. The lab is also equipped with updated computer technology including a MakerBot and Ultimaker 3D printer for students to employ rapid prototyping. 这个虚拟设计是在一个 计算机辅助设计 file using AutoCADInventor, a professional 3D modeling program. 所有工程类, including the 较低的学校 and after school 机器人俱乐部s, 无人机 Club and Builders Club have access to the 工具, 材料, and machines to make their 3D designs come to life!
STEM和工程项目
Some of the campus projects STEM students continue to develop and engineer include:
- Aquaponics”/水培系统
- Independent Biome Mangrove Propegule Sediment Testing System used in data collection and research for the FAQWA Grant
- 搜索水下ROV系统
- 戏剧舞台与布景设计
- 动物栖息地设计
高中无人机俱乐部
法拉古特海军上将学院 provides students the opportunity to explore 无人机训练. This club is open to all students and gives them the chance to visually observe and pilot various modes of drones. Students follow all FAA regulations with an emphasis on safety and are given the option of getting FAA无人机认证.
高中建筑俱乐部
Students at 法拉古特海军上将学院 have the opportunity to participate in the Builders Club which utilizes the 高中STEM实验室 工具 and 材料 in the maker space to work on individual or campus-wide projects. Students work with a certified 技术 Education Teacher focusing on design, 工具, 材料安全.
