The drone projects are *almost* complete! The 5th graders have done a fantastic job at using their creativity by combining their understanding of aerodynamics, design, block coding, videography, video editing, sound design, and teamwork to put together some really fun projects. There has been a lot of trial and error, and they've stretched the Western engineering/design process to its limits. Most of these ambitious 5th graders have gained some valuable experience learning how to simplify and adapt when their initial vision proved to be to big of an undertaking. We're excited to add finishing touches and premiere their videos next week or the week after Spring Break.

We'll be finishing the school year with a study of microscopy. I'm currently researching good options for classroom microscopes, but if you have any leads, please let me know!
