What's Happening in STEM This Week?

This week in STEM, we have some really cool assignments coming up! We'll finally be wrapping up our Aerospace Engineering unit. We spent some time last week drawing blueprints for our spacecraft and thinking like aerospace engineers. This week, we will be learning about some of the scientific concepts behind aerospace engineering like lift, drag, and air resistance. Towards the end of the week, we will finally be starting our final project - designing our own parachutes!

Check out some of these great spacecraft designs from your classmates!
