My Project

My students have worked so hard this year, despite all of the difficulties we have faced due to the pandemic. I would love to give them fun and memorable projects to close the year.

Students will be able to practice communication skills while building catapults, bridges, hurricane shelters, and smores solar ovens.

Using the engineering design process, students will collaborate, build, write, revise, and present. My students have not had the opportunity to participate in many Project-Based Learning this year, as the other team in our grade levels are the designated PBL teams. These projects will allow them the hands-on fun that they will remember for years to come!
