Mrs. Latrella and the fourth-grade students participated in the Independent Study program and held an Invention Expo on Wednesday, December 13th. The students identified problems within the classroom and lunchroom area with regard to desks, lunchroom tables, and facilitation of food during their lunch period. After engaging in multiple solution seeking activities, the fourth grade “engineers” drafted design plans and created prototypes to bring their ideal classroom desk or lunchroom table vision to fruition! Students created tri-fold presentation boards to highlight their journey through the engineering process and presented their reimagined and innovative classroom / lunchroom furniture designs to all that attended the expo! Great job!
