Impact of Cigarette Smoke on Plants
A Study by the Students at Stevens Forest Elementary School
Please enjoy these photos of our students conducting 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.
