Sixth graders in Mrs. Abner’s Digital Citizenship class visited the STEAM lab to create a new invention. They used the Engineering Design Process to develop a new product. They built and tested the product. This week they will work on developing a marketing strategy for their product and will present their invention to others. The goal was to develop a prototype that could be sold.









FCA will meet this Wednesday morning from 7:35-7:55 a.m. in the STEAM lab. Chase King will be our speaker. Invite a friend to come with you and come join us!

Josh Haley, from Temple and Temple, took the Construction Club on a tour of the asphalt plant and on a section of the Monon Trail. We talked about different grades of rock, asphalt, the variety of jobs in construction, and all the things that have to be considered when working on a job site.
