🚀🤖 Flip, Test, Repeat! 🤖🚀

Students in Mrs. Dillard’s robotics class are putting the Engineering Design Process into action—and things are getting a little flippy! 💦🍾

Their challenge: How many mL of water does it take to make a bottle flip and land on its bottom? Students worked in teams, experimented with different-sized bottles, and adjusted the amount of water for each trial. The goal? 3 successful flips! 🎯

There was plenty of testing, teamwork, problem-solving, and, of course, some serious bottle-flipping fun! 🙌

Who knew engineering could be this much fun? STEM + teamwork + bottle flips = a great day of learning! 🔬💡🤖

Students in Mrs. Dillard’s class are starting the year with an engineering mindset! They are learning how to work through challenging activities, persevere when things get difficult, and keep going until the challenge is complete. Students also set up their engineering notebooks to help them stay organized and prepare for a successful year. We’re off to a great start! 🧠⚙️📓
