As Stevenson students we are active learners that engaged in authentic learning experiences. We use design and making to solve problems, communicate learning, and add beauty to our community.
Come see The Great Balancing Act!
Students have applied the design process and their knowledge of balance and motion to create this interactive museum. Visitors will have an opportunity to acquire metal embossing skills.
What inspired you to make this project?:
We created a balance museum as a means to teach others about balance and motion.
We wanted to increase the number of plants in our room, so we created a planters.
To assist with organization in our class room, we designed and built desk organizers.
After leaning about the decreasing number of bees and other pollinators, we decided to build bee boxes to help.
The gold extraction project was created to increase the connection between students and the experience of miners of the Gold Rush and to evaluate the environmental impact vs. the economic gain of gold extraction.
