🧱✏️ From paper to LEGO creations!

Today in BREAD, our students completed a STEM engineering design challenge, turning their drawings into 3D LEGO models!

Students first sketched a picture they wanted to build. They then examined the shapes, sizes, and quantities of available LEGO pieces and worked in groups to bring their ideas to life.

This activity combined art, math, and engineering while giving students opportunities to practice creativity, spatial reasoning, problem-solving, and teamwork. One drawing, many pieces, and a shared goal! 🌟

What better way to start a new school year at Wilkerson Middle School?☀️🍳 Science in the Sun! 🔬
Today, our young scientists put the 95° heat to the test! Using eggs, aluminum foil, and parchment paper, students explored heat transfer and thermal energy while observing how heat can cause physical changes. 🧪☀️

Hands-on science is the best science! 💜
