Students will get to explore the world of engineering fundamentals by building a variety of different fun projects. Through challenges like model bridges, marble roller coasters, spaghetti towers and more, students will get to see how physics and engineering concepts such as kinetic energy and buoyancy can be used in real life, all while having tons of fun!
Students will learn:
- The logic of creative thinking involved in engineering
- How to apply basic physics to the engineering and design process
- How to work as a team to accomplish a common goal
Students will Create:
- Soaring skyscrapers through the use of spaghetti, tape and string
- Heavy-duty bridges using paper, glue, and string
- Speedy marble roller coasters using foam tubes, tape, and other tools
