My Project

My students are 5th and 6th graders who love sciences and engineering. I started an after school STEM club last year when a student asked if there were any clubs that for kids who didn't like sports. The afterschool STEM club was launched and here we are this year with something much more exciting!

This year students are excited to be designing, building and implementing a mini Golf course for the public to play during our annual Art show being held in May.

The materials from this project will be used, along with recyclable materials, to build the golf course. Students will also be making the putters that the public will be able to use. They are very excited to be able to use a theme and put together their holes.
