Good luck to our girls and boys teams - run smart, stay relaxed through the first mile, then start picking runners off one by one. 🖤❤️🏁 Trust your training, run your race, and leave it all on the course! Go Hornets! 🖤❤️
7th grade Engineering is officially underway, and our students just wrapped up the Tallest Spaghetti Tower Challenge!
Using only 20 pieces of dry spaghetti and 1 meter of tape, teams had to design a tower tall enough to compete - and strong enough to hold up a classroom item (all the same mass). Along the way, they learned a lot about criteria and constraints, the importance of teamwork, and that everyone’s ideas have value.
Next up, they’ll be exploring real-world tower design and engineering, including structures like the Burj Khalifa in Dubai and One World Trade Center in New York City.
And of course… congratulations to the 7th grade hour winners pictured - because let’s be honest, everything is a competition in middle school!
Also, fair warning: this is harder than you might think… that’s why it’s called a challenge!
