Thursday's #MicrobeWeek activity for #MinersInTheMaking we talked about and made #SuperHeroes who save people and then made #MicrobeSuperheroes to protect the environment. Another fun activity from #NISENetwork #MissouriS&T

Wrapped up #MicrobeWeek with #MinersInTheMaking talking about fun facts about microbes and discovering about the role of microbes in making delicious foods. One of the kids made me this awesome thank you picture featuring some of the @giantmicrobes.bsky.social i brought with me. #MissouriS&T

Day 2 of #MicrobeWeek for #MinersInTheMaking #MissouriSandT #SandTKummerSTEM. Made some colorful viruses. Lots of great questions from the kids!

Wednesday's activity for #MicrobeWeek with #MinersInTheMaking #MissouriSandT #SandTKummerSTEM We learned that scientists can make viruses to treat diseases so we made viruses that can do things that make people happy.
