Here is an engineering design development project. The girls are looking at how to melt ice using methods other than salt. @IkeSDNB

Our Engineering Design Development students gave their final design presentation. #IKEengineering

@Mrsklgarcia It is okay if students fail we are learning.

Today was the last day for paper roller coasters!

In Green Engineering students are modeling wind turbine blades today. #IKEengineering

[Devin McKinnon @DevinMckinnon]

Thank you, @CivilAirPatrol for donating the flight simulators. Students come in for lunch to learn more about flying! #IKEengineering

Laser engraving in Wheel 7. @IkeSDNB

[Devin McKinnon @DevinMckinnon]

In our 7th grade wheel students learn about laser engraving. This is a skill builder for the end of the semester where students will design, model, and test an innovative toy!

[Devin McKinnon @DevinMckinnon]

We are learning from our mistakes today! Our angles are off :). #ikeengineering

[Devin McKinnon @DevinMckinnon]

This one is also a really cool design! #poe #ikeengineering

[Devin McKinnon @DevinMckinnon]

We have one group with a working fluid power machine today! #poe #ikeengineering

[Devin McKinnon @DevinMckinnon]

I believe active engagement is required for learning. Self reflect... How did you engage every student today?

Thanks to @MikeKuglitsch @SenDaveCraig who stopped by @IkeSDNB today to present a commendation to @DevinMckinnon in honor of her recent national recognition as @PLTWorg Teacher of the Year. (It's kind of a big deal.)

8th grade Green Architecture learned about wind energy today using VR.

[Devin McKinnon @DevinMckinnon]

Paper roller coaster. Students are learning about potential vs kinetic energy. #PLTW #IKEengineering #ScienceofTechnology #Wheel7

[Devin McKinnon @DevinMckinnon]

Fluid power today in Principles of Engineering! #PLTW #POE #IKEengineering

[Devin McKinnon @DevinMckinnon]

Testing our Green Architecture sheds today! Students are learning about R Values! @PLTWorg
