Free Choice Makerspace:
Students LOVE Free Choice Fridays. Why wouldn't they? This is a time where students can "build their imaginations." Each activity is anchored in ISTE or Next Gen Science standards and encourages students to apply those 21st century thinking skills.

Strong Straw Bridges!
After learning about different kinds of bridges (including truss, suspension, arch, and beam) students designed and built straw bridges, demonstrating knowledge of what makes a bridge strong, and then tested out their design with a cup of pennies.
Duct Tape Challenge!
Following the Design Process, students were asked to create a useful product out of Duct Tape. The challenge? They only received one-square-foot of Duct Tape to use!
