Impact of Cigarette Smoke on Plants
A Study by the Students at Stevens Forest Elementary School
Please enjoy these photos of our students conducting their STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) research.
SCIENCE - These photographs show the students conducting their scientific investigations.
Much of this work followed development of the technology and engineering needed for that research.
TECHNOLOGY - These photographs show some of the technology
that the students are developing.
Some is ready for use in science, some will require engineering to put it in a useable form.
ENGINEERING - These photographs show the engineering that the students are doing for their science investigations.
Some of it is based on their technology, some based on well known principles.
MATHEMATICS - These photographs show some of mathematical
work that the students have been doing in their science,
technology and engineering activities. Math is useful everywhere.
HEALTH - These photographs show students learning about the health effects of cigarettes on people.
They often take a break from the plant/cigarette study to pursue these kinds of questions.
FROM KIDS - These are questions (in a slightly abridged form) that the students asked about
cigarettes and smoking. They form the basis of some of the research that they will conduct.

The back, play/stop, and forward buttons control the slides.

This is the percent of the research already
accomplished that has been documented. The students conduct their research at a faster rate than it can be added to this Website.
