Preschool STEAM and Executive Functioning Movers and Shakers STEAM is an acronym for Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts/Creativity and Math education. We focus on these areas together not only because the skills and knowledge in each discipline are essential for student success, but also because these fields are deeply intertwined in the real world and in how students learn most effectively. STEAM is an interdisciplinary and applied approach that is coupled with hands-on, problem-based learning. (Check out all the STEAM offerings this season.) Children not enrolled in Lake Bluff Preschool must provide an updated vaccination report to participate in enrichment programs.
