A hole-in-one kind of day where STEM meets PE thanks to Mr. Klotz! ⛳️ In STEM, 3rd graders designed and built their very own mini golf courses using everyday materials. Then, they brought their creations to life in PE where students practiced golf skills. This is what hands-on learning looks like at Chapman: collaboration, fun, and creativity!
