Seventh Grade Technology and Design
    Posted September 24, 2009

 

We have been studying technology and design.  Students used a piece of tin
foil to design a boat. The boat needed to float, as well as hold pennies. How many
pennies do you think they were able to float?  First place - 100 pennies.  How awesome!

They also constructed chairs out of cardboard.  They could not use tape,
glue, clips, or nails.  Their chair had to hold 20 kgs.  This technology
project was fun and challenging for each technological design group.
