We had fun in the Water Lab putting our knowledge of the power of water to work! @MillCityMuseum @StemMcKinley @McKinley4th

Collaboration and connecting ideas in a Minneapolis Power Lab! How do we create power from water and how has the way we power the city of Minneapolis changed over time? @MillCityMuseum @StemMcKinley @McKinley4th

Into the Flour Tower we go!! We experienced the story & history of the flour mill! Highlights: the elevator "show", observation deck, flour making equipment, & seeing actual fire damage from the explosion and fire of 1991! #historyrocks @MillCityMuseum @StemMcKinley @McKinley4th

LOVE these silly kiddos, who decided to have a “family dinner” at @MillCityMuseum after learning about the power of water and the magic of the mill! What an amazing day filled with hands on learning, collaboration and so much fun! #mckinleystrong
