Today was all about mechanical costume design! Students worked with their teams to complete background research, create a budget, and work on a detailed design blueprint. This is really big work, and the students worked hard on this all morning and afternoon to prepare for CONSTRUCTION next week!
Speaking of... please see the note below about "junk" donations that will help the 6th graders meet their budget expectations.
Our 6th grade students are working a project where they are creating mechanical costumes. If you have any junk (see list below) you can spare, please drop it off at Lowell or send it in with your child. Ms Gabrielli could also swing by your house to pick it up if it is a really good haul! 😉 THANK YOU!
Examples of good junk: fabric, foam, pvc pipe, nuts/bolts/screws, twine, batting, hot glue, yarn, dowels, spools, big cardboard pieces, wire, etc...
As we begin our school year and face new challenges, we are seeking new ways to enrich your child's education both in person and virtually. Our current wish list includes a set of classroom cameras, a Tello drone kit, Rubiks Cubes, graphic novels, and more enriching art and tech!

(I'll start posting as soon as I have confirmed which students from each school are on the No Photo List. Thanks for your patience!)
