• 1:05 Makerspace: Feb. 10-21

  We've been busy in Makerspace! 6th graders in Rm. 109 have been creating unique circuits. Shoutout to Roy who designed a basketball hoop to light-up when a basket was made! 4th graders were designing wind turbines to see firsthand how motion energy can be converted into electrical energy. 6th Graders in Rm. 109 have continued to finalize timed trials on their Vex robots - trying to collect as many "hazardous" (lego) blocks they can collect in under 2 min. The pressure is on! 3rd graders also got a chance to see balanced and unbalanced forces in action by creating their own teeter totter made up rulers, binder clips and paper clips. 5th graders began their coding unit by beginning to assemble Jimu robots. Once built, students will be able to develop a project that will highlight their Jimu. Stay tuned for progress updates!
