Shipbuilding Challenge ⛵️ As part of their Explorers unit, our Grade 5 students became shipbuilders! Each group researched a type of ship and spent six weeks in Makerspace designing and constructing their own from cardboard and other available materials. Their ships had to meet real design challenges — 100cm x 50cm in size, able to float, carry “cargo,” and stay upright in water for five minutes. Through this project, our young explorers showcased creativity, teamwork, and problem-solving as they brought their ideas to life! 🌊⚙️ #KASDragons #Grade5 #KASLearning #Makerspace #HandsOnLearning #STEMEducation

All About Me: End-of-Unit Celebration 🎉 What a joyful, student-led celebration! Our PK-B friends proudly shared their learning from the All About Me unit — reading their books, presenting their self-portraits, and sharing fun facts about themselves and their classmates with their families. Each student’s work reflected their unique personality and growth, from the thoughtful details in their books to their creative life-size self-portraits. We’re so proud to see them shine and tell their stories with such confidence and pride! 💛 #KASDragons #EarlyLearning #StudentLedLearning #AllAboutMe #KASEarlyYears #高雄美國學校
