Description : Graduate students from UNO Instructor Tami Williams’ Educational Leadership course collaborated with Ms. Danielle Elsasser’s 5rd grade students from Black Elk Elementary and adults with autism from the Autism Center of Nebraska (ACN). This project allowed the elementary students to foster relationships between themselves, UNO grad students, and the clients from ACN through the creation of STEAM based collaboration activities. Some of these activities included making origami, slime, and tinker toys. UNO students benefited by the gained experience of making lesson plans and working with students and adults with disabilities. To culminate the project, origami butterflies that were made during the project were hung on light up trees and given to Black Elk and ACN.
