Thanks to MCTEC, Mr. O'Dell received shelves for his Project Lead the Way supplies! Mr. O'Dell's 8th grade class used critical thinking (does this look right?), reading (directions) & engineering (what if I did it this way?) skills to assemble them in ONE period for him! :)



Mr. O'Dell's classes have been preparing for group work for Code and Project Lead the Way. Today, students had to work in groups to design an aluminum foil boat and see how many pennies they could get to float before it sank! (This activity is also a Jason Learning activity!)

Mr. O'Dell's classes have been working with Micro:bits, which are small, computer-chip-like devices that introduce students to how software and hardware work together and have an LED light display, buttons, and many input/output features students can program to do various things!
