Creativity, curiosity, and a whole lot of problem-solving were on display today at Jay Shideler Elementary School as the fifth-grade class put on an impressive Science Fair.
Students explored big ideas through hands-on experiments like cooking with a solar oven, fireproofing toys, designing kites, and building friction-powered cars.
Great job to all of these young scientists for bringing science to life in such fun and creative ways!
But will it float? 🚣♀️
That’s the question Washburn Rural High School Robotics & Engineering students set out to answer last week as they tested canoes they designed and built themselves. The hands-on project challenged students to think critically, collaborate with teammates, and apply real-world engineering concepts in a fun and memorable way.
Spoiler alert: Not every canoe passed the test, but lessons were learned and experience was gained.
