Paden City Elementary 6th grade students were challenged to build a tall tower of KEVA wooden plank. Students discussed the shape of their design and began construction. Students took turns building and assisting one another as the tower grew. After two class periods, students constructed a tower over 8 feet tall with a small light at the top. A special thanks to The Covestro/Westlake/Williams Community Advisory Panel as their generous science grant allowed for the purchase of over 1,600 KEVA wooden planks. Joy Musgrave and Kandy Stephen facilitated this engineering by design challenge.

Sixth grade students in PLTW Design& Modeling used their measuring skills to create a skimmer. The project required reading dimensions accurately and measuring precisely. The more accurate the measurements the farther the skimmer will glide. Also, they are recording their race distances in their notebooks to complete a statistical analysis for the next assignment. They will compete next week for a PLTW lunchbox, so stay tuned.
Kindergarten readers are our future leaders!
