Demetrius’s Story

“My favorite thing to learn in school is math. I’m in the STEM class and I’m in STEM club. And for the past couple of weeks we’ve been working on going to the moon! We have to plan what we need to live on the moon and we can build them with Legos. When we first started one of our mentors, I think it was Ms. Rachel, she made us snacks in case we get hungry so we can eat on the moon. And I made a detective in case we find different things to bring back to Earth, and my friend Edwin has been making a car spaceship so we can drive on the moon. We also made a moving satellite! So we can talk to other planets. We made the moving satellite with Legos and we can control it with the tablets over there. And last week we made our rocket ships, so I think we’re getting pretty close to being ready.”
