Welcome to our Emerging Engineers this week! We are learning all about what it means to be an engineer, what they do, and how they work! We will be challenging our spatial learning skills with engineering games, puzzles, and activities.
On Monday, we will learn what engineering is an the design process. Ask me…
- What are the steps in the engineering design process?
- How I created my parking structure?

Tuesday is all about civil engineering. Ask me..
- How I built my dome?
- If my tower survived the shake table!
- What did I build with K’nex?
On Wednesday, we will learn about electrical engineering. Ask me…
- What conductive and non-conductive mean?
- If modeling clay or play dough is conductive?
- What did I make with the snap circuits?
Thursday we will learn what a package engineer does! Ask me…
- How did I help astronauts eat in space?
- Ho did I design my aid package to ensure people knew what was inside?
- What did I choose to put in the package?
- Was I able to drop my package successfully?
On Friday, we will end our week by learning about robotics. Ask me…
