STEM project "SPRING-Vysyvanka-2024"

For the second year in a row, our lyceum is participating in a major educational project initiated by the Institute for the Modernization of the Content of Education "STEM-spring-fest".

The project aims to introduce STEM technologies into the educational process, to involve students in scientific, engineering and research activities.

On April 22-26, 2024, teachers and high school students actively embodied the creative idea of ​​the STEM week "Spring-Vysyvanka-2024". All projects are aimed at popularizing Ukrainian embroidery as an integral component of national identity, patriotism and self-expression.

The peculiarity of this year's STEM was that interesting creative projects were developed not only from mathematical and natural sciences, but also social and philological subjects.

While studying the topic "Geometric transformations" in geometry lessons, students of the 9-A grade made a successful attempt to encode their own names in Ukrainian embroidery patterns using a special program. The creation of the organizer "Indestructibility" in the form of regular polyhedra decorated with patriotic ornaments was the pinnacle of creativity of the youngest lyceum students. View.
