Clairbourn School’s kindergarten students worked on an engineering project last Wednesday, October 16.
The activity is based on Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics education, which focuses on problem-based learning.
The students were presented with a task: to design and make a container that includes handles and could carry at least three apples.
Four containers were produced by the students who worked individually and by group, with each child having a certain job such as being a time keeper, speaker, material manager and recorder.
The containers were tested and the winning design was able to hold 11 apples.
Clairbourn School is located at 8400 Huntington Dr. For more information, call (626) 286-3108 or visit http://clairbourn.org.
