The second graders have been working on creating a marble maze. They have been working through the design engineering process to create and improve a marble maze. They are looking good!

The first graders worked on the engineer and design process as they created a LEGO "vehicle" that would attach and successfully go down our zipline. They had to problem solve to combine materials - the LEGOs and the plastic chain links. Then then had to make it work with our pulley - if it was too light it wouldn't go. The goal was to go all the way down and bump into the chair. They had a blast!
The fourth graders created cardboard figures using the Engineering Design Process. They researched using links provided here and then using only a paper plate, pencil and scissors, created a figure that could stand. Then they looked at how they could improve their figure and created a new one that worked even better. |
