2024-2025 Wrap Up
Team members met 3-4 hours a week for 3-4 months iterating their prototypes to adjust materials of wheels, axles, weights, strings, pulleys, etc to find the right balance of height, weight, momentum, power, and torque. Each team also compiled an Engineering Journal and practiced for Judges Interview, culminating in the Final Showcase this past weekend.
208 teams in the 4-5th grade category
150 teams from 6th grade
150 teams in 7th-8th grade
126 teams in high school
Every Wednesday and some Saturdays over the last few months, the team has worked diligently on the Engineering Journal and practiced interviewing with faculty members.
Coming up:
- May 8 Maker Faire - we will coordinate with Mr. Schertle for the team to host their device from 5-6pm with a flyer explaining what the Tech Challenge is and the award they received.
- STEAM TV - we are brainstorming on what this may look like
- Assembly
We are so proud of the team and all their efforts, and thank you again for your support!!!
