This week found our first graders working and exploring with a lot of other students on the High Tech Chula Vista campus! We started the week with some 4th grade trash and recycling experts! We are trying to take better care our environment and our school and these experts helped us to learn which items we can recycle and which ones need to go in the trash. I have seen our 1st graders paying extra attention this week to make sure that they are sorting their trash!
We have also been spending some time each week with our 9th grade night light buddies! We are so fortunate to be partnering with Mr. Ted's class on their current project...a solar powered night light that they are designing for each 1st grader! After lots of planning and critique together, the 9th graders have begun the construction of the night lights. Some will be made using a laser cutter and some with a 3D printer! We are tentatively planning to exhibit and receive our night lights on Wednesday, February 11 from 5-6...so keep that date on your calendar!
