Westminster Middle School Innovation Lab Blog

Ms. Baker’s 6th grade art classes dove right back into the year, coming into the STEAM lab to continue working on their hoverboards.  Students are in groups and using plywood, vinyl, staples, lots of tape, and leaf blowers to design their own hoverboards in all shapes and sizes. These hoverboards will be used as part of a brand new game that the students will be designing in class, and then they will demonstrate this in front of the school.  This week, students were getting a crash course on how to properly use electrical screwdrivers, holesaws, and staple guns for assembly, all while using geometry to properly locate all attachments and penetrations.
