Owning Our Space
by Jule Abeytia
Using the engineering design process, students will identify a structural or spatial problem on their school campus and then plan, design, evaluate and redesign a structural and spatial solution while applying the grade-appropriate understanding of area and perimeter and correctly calculating those measurements for their model and the real life application.
