April 11 - 14

Hey y'all lets get building Welcome grade 6 construction students, we have done our safety unit and are finishing up our Logo's.  The next stage is to design and build a wooden toy.  We are just getting started coming with lots of ideas.  Grade 7 - 9 construction students have worked through developing their ideas on paper and are now ready to begin the hard work of developing our skills while creating our projects. It can be stressful at times trying to make the materials do what we want, but this is a healthy part of learning new skills.  We will persevere through design challenges and skill building to bring our collective visions to life. Over the remaining weeks we will be almost entirely engaging in hands on activities. It is an exciting time for me to see all the students creative ideas begin to take physical shape.  Grade 9 ELectrotechnology students are all deeply involved in the creative process.  Many teams have built, tested, modified and redesigned their robots sev
