My Project

Students will use their imaginations to engineer whatever they like with two diffferent kinds of materials - recycled cardboard and KEVA Planks.

Engineering challenges are fun learning experiences that foster creativity, entrepreneurship, and other 21st century skills.

Skills like:

• ingenuity and resourcefulness

• perseverance

• collaboration and teamwork

• critical thinking

Replenishing our supply of Makedo SCRUs and having enough cardboard scorers for an entire classroom will allow students to create and not wait. Adding to our collection of KEVA Planks will allow for team building some noteworthy structures.
