Instrument Design Projects!

The students had a lot of fun performing for the class with the instruments they designed and built themselves. They came up with a ton of really cool ideas and did an awesome job explaining and playing their instruments! See the videos for some demonstrations of interesting instruments that a couple of students designed.

Barbie Bungee!

7th grade students were hard at work, focusing on their engineering and measurement skills for the "Barbie Bungee". Teams of students created bungee cords solely out of rubber bands for Barbie to bungee jump off of a ladder with. The goal was to get Barbie as close to the ground as possible without hitting her head. The students had a lot of fun testing out their bungee cords (Barbie... not so much)!
