Roller Coaster Finals

Students have worked hard to use what they have learned and apply it to their own unique roller coaster designs. See some of their work....

Roller Coasters

We are continuing our work with gravity and having SO much fun! Students are designing and building roller coasters that use their knowledge of gravity, force and motion as well as friction to complete different missions each day. Stay tuned for pictures and videos of what they are doing!

Gravity

STEM students have begun learning all about gravity. We learned that gravity does NOT pull things down, but pulls things towards the center of the Earth. We've had some amazing conversations about what "down" even means when the world is round. We have started designing parachutes that can fall slowly and safely. Next we will work on roller coasters......
