Design Challenge
Much like the once popular PBS show “Design Squad,” our 8th grade students design, build, and test engineering projects made for an actual community partner’s needs. Students will meet with professionals, be given a challenge, and then work in teams to develop a prototype solution.Students will learn that engineering is fun, creative, and exciting while making use of all tools and machines in the workshop. Engineers make the world a better place; this is the chance for students to design and build something from their imaginations that will actually help people in their community!
