Contraptions Galore 1: Engineering Challenges

Innovators love gadgets- and getting to design and build their own gadgets from recyclables is a fun way to flex those creative neurons!

Each week, Innovators will work individually and in groups to tackle engineering challenges such as:

• Build a trampoline that will bounce a Lego figure more than a foot in the air.  
• Design and build a house for the Three Little Pigs that will hold up against the Big Bad Wolf's huffing and puffing.
• Design and build a straw boat that will hold the most pennies without sinking

As we work through the challenges and build gadget solutions, we will wonder, imagine, design and plan, build, test, and share our products.  Your children won't realize it, but as they work through the engineering process, they will refine math, physics, engineering and design skills. 

Gadgets Galore 1 will meet for 6 weeks beginning the second week of September and finish the week of October 14, 2019.
