Victoria Cogsworth

Listen Leaders,

The much anticipated moment is here!  On this, the day of our nephew's birth, we're releasing a gift to you.  Today, we release to the world:

Victoria, our technologist, is the second member of the STEAM Team.  By now, you and Silas - our scientist - are old chums.  If not, and all this ramble about the STEAM Team is lost on you, check out his story first:

Meet Silas

And then, choose from these cross-curricular activities to further immerse you in his story:

Science and Research

Music and STEAM Design

Physical Education and STEAM Design

Social Studies and Writing

Oh, you're ready for Victoria now?  Well, then, allow me to tell you a little about her.  Victoria hails from a subdued, rural setting, unlike Silas' action-packed metropolis. But make no mistake!  Her wheels are still turning.  In Victoria's story, you'll begin to see into the inner workings of the STEAM Team.  Her story tells of inspiration from nature, how one cog cannot achieve alone, and hints at things to come.

Today, we're simply releasing her story.  Enjoy it alone, in a quiet place, with a steaming cup of coffee, and ponder how you can use it with your learners.  Then, come back.  Share your ideas with us and check out some of ours.  You know we'll be stewing on ways to serve up Victoria themed resources.

But for now...

Come!  Join us on the mesa!  Victoria awaits.

Meet Victoria when you click here.

Godspeed,
