| | We are finally getting around to a project that allows students some creative license. This lesson comes after talking about the gadgets and gizmos Thomas Jefferson collected or had built for his house at Monticello, and another discussion about the gadgets and gizmos used by Washington's spies and spies in general. In this initial lesson, I have asked students to design the ultimate clubhouse. We then started imagining how to construct a model of the clubhouse using our collection of K'Nex building materials. We'll have to wait and see how this one turns out. |
