Our gifted 3rd-grade classes took on an exciting STEM challenge just in time for fall! Students were tasked with engineering a tool capable of picking up as many candy pumpkins as possible in a single "swipe."
The rules were strict: students could not touch the candy pumpkins with their hands during the challenge. The goal was for teams to clear the "pumpkin patch" in the fewest attempts possible, promoting efficient and creative design solutions.
It was incredible to watch these young engineers problem-solve and collaborate. From intricate claw mechanisms to wide-sweeping collection devices, each team developed a unique approach. The classroom was abuzz with critical thinking, trial and error, and joyous success as they tested their prototypes.
Congratulations to all our brilliant inventors on a job well done!
