NOTE: As with any image intensive file, these photos take a while to load.

Sharpening computer skills for grade-keeping, writing and accessing the internet with all of its resources.


Soda straws and paper clips are being used to construct a tower to hold the greatest weight.


Blowing on the vanes 'puts the bird in the cage' showing persistence of vision.


The Shop Experience
Participants are building a 'Tower of Hanoi' puzzle while learning to use the shop tools.

Teachers learn to make their own apparatus for their mini-teaches and to take back to their own classroom during the Summer. The shop is also available during the bi-weekly academic year classes.

Experimenting to find a circuit that lights the bulb.


Finding classroom ways to study plant life.
