Students dive into engineering by learning to safely use real tools to build a collaborative structure and explore how materials, connectors, and angles affect strength and stability while focusing on testing and iteration. Grades 3 - 5
Students take on the role of real engineers—learning safe tool handling and techniques while building a functional mechanism or structure. They’ll plan a design, measure and cut materials, and assemble their build based on real-world constraints and engineering strategies. Grades 6 - 8
