Grabbers and Cars!

For the Innovators study of engineering they have been given a series of challenges. The latest was to make a "prosthetic arm" able to lift an object from two feet away. The students used a variety of materials but all succeeded in the challenge. 

The LeMay car museum offers field trips so the Innovators went to look at how cars are designed for speed and power and how propulsion has changed over time. They made and tested wooden cars and toured much of the museum asking great questions about the vehicles they saw.
