The 7th AND 8th grade robotics teams are BOTH state bound! Great job to all the kids. It was a long day, but so worth it…to see the looks on the kids’ faces hearing those announcements!
The 5th and 3rd graders collected data on how far their sail car would travel. They also experimented with calcium chloride and baking soda to learn the difference between an endothermic and exothermic reaction.
Good luck to Bureau Valley Storm Bots. They will be competing at The Rust Belt in East Moline today.
