Team 8-2 is planning on implementing an interdisciplinary
unit called "Amazon Mission" during Academic Enrichment
beginning on Monday, March 31st. The unit was created by Tufts
University and the Museum of Science, Boston and was funded by
GE Foundation and Math Excellence Program.
This interdisciplinary unit will allow students to use
the Engineering Design Steps to solve real world problems and
help them review for math and science MCAS tests that they will
be taking in May.
We are asking parents to help with the cost of materials
needed for this unit. Donations of the following materials would
be greatly appreciated:
* Corrugated board
* Foam board
* Bubble wrap
* Rubber mat
*Aluminum foil
* Heavy duty packaging tape
* Plastic bags
* Plastic beverage stirrers
* Plastic straws
* Small & large styrofoam cups
* Tape |
Thank you,
Team 8-2
