STM had a wonderful time making brain helmets and running a fruit fly exhibit at the East Silver Spring Elementary STEM Night on March 28, 2019. Students learned about the different parts and functions of the brain and made helmets to take home. Students also learned about the life cycle of the fruit fly and worked together to identify eye and wing mutations. Our thanks to teachers Richard Weerts, Kaitlyn Johnson, and Jennifer Hoy for putting this amazing event together. Thanks also to Leif Benner and Brian Oliver for supplying us with the fruit flies and Bryan Goehring for loaning us the dissecting microscopes.
