STEM Week 2017
The students have been working on their wind turbines intermittently all year long and were able to complete them while the 8th graders were away in Philadelphia. In addition to building the wind turbines the students were asked to create an information, installation, and troubleshooting packet (similar to what manufacturers include with their products). The students also filmed an advertisement to promote their wind turbines. During this week the students also learned about budgeting and how it relates to retail pricing. The students learned how to use their material costs to create retail prices that incorporate overhead expenses and labor costs. Please check out their packets and advertisements below.
The Four Winds - Ginger, Diego, and Madeline
Windy DANA's Turbine Company - Sonja, David, and Nick
KNLS - Robyn, Peyton, Gabi, and Smyan
One Tree Hill - Isabella, Sophia P., and Katerina

STEM Week 2016
The students studied rockets and how they relate to space tourism and trips to the International Space Station. The students investigated environmental concerns and health issues related to space travel as well as rocket design. The culminating project, besides launching their rockets, was to create a "Proinfomercial" - part proposal, part information, part commercial - in an attempt to sell their rocket to SpaceX.
Every student stepped up to the challenge!!
