We have begun our Engineering Design Unit. Students are working on an Engineering Design Poster that is due next Wednesday. This poster will lay the groundwork for our design project where students will use the process to create a motorized toy. For the next two weeks will will continue to explore aspects of the engineering design process as it is use in different engineering disciplines. After that students will begin designing their motorized toy. While we will do the initial work in class, we will have a maker day. I will be looking for parent volunteers to come in and assist students with their toy building. I will need parents to supervise stations for hot gluing, cutting foam core, painting and general problem solving. This will be on a Wednesday, since that is the day that we have larger blocks of time. Please think about volunteering for this event. Details will follow.
