In recent years, STEAM has quickly become a focus of early childhood education— and for good reason. Curricula that focus on the importance of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics help develop children who are prepared for the world's stage. At Benjamin Preparatory School, we have successfully incorporated STEAM into our faith-based curriculum. STEAM+ takes STEAM to the next level by incorporating faith as an integral part of a child's first learning experiences. Find out more about our efforts below and schedule a tour today.
What Is STEAM?
Benjamin Preparatory School embraces the STEAM approach, integrating Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics into its curriculum. This interdisciplinary method prepares students for real-world problem-solving and critical thinking, encouraging creativity and inquiry-based learning. The school takes STEAM a step further by examining these concepts through the lens of scripture, allowing students to acknowledge and cultivate their spiritual identity from an early age. This unique approach not only equips students with academic and artistic skills but also instills a faith-filled confidence that empowers them to persevere through the challenges of the post-pandemic world. The integration of arts within the STEAM framework at Benjamin Preparatory School sparks imagination and creativity, fostering confident individuals who are prepared to make a positive impact on the world.
The Benefits of STEAM in the Classroom
The inclusion of STEAM in the classroom offers numerous benefits to students of all ages. Firstly, it fosters critical thinking skills, encouraging students to ask questions, analyze problems, and develop innovative solutions. By engaging in hands-on activities, students learn to think independently and collaborate with their peers, building teamwork and communication skills. Additionally, early STEAM education at our Atlanta prep school prepares students for future academic endeavors. With a strong foundation in these core competencies, students can enter elementary school with confidence and stay one step ahead of their peers.
Age-Appropriate STEAM Activities
Our curriculum includes a wide variety of engaging STEAM activities, tailored to each student’s age and ability level. Infants in our Tiny Dreamers program can play with building blocks and shape-matching puzzles, while preschoolers in our Shooting Stars program can engage in a plethora of exciting activities and experiments. This is all balanced with our emphasis on performing arts, making sure your child has the freedom to explore their passions and develop multiple skills.
At our prep school in Atlanta, we combine the research-backed philosophies of STEAM with the Christ-Centered principles of faith. The result is that our students gain all the tools they need to succeed in academics while also becoming spiritually-strong leaders at school and in life.
