Science Tutoring

For my science tutoring, I have been conducting is using projects. One project challenge we did (Thanks to the Baylor med center folks I saw at CAST) was to design a cell phone tower that is pleasing to the eye, over 30 cm tall, and can hold the transmitter (a plastic egg). The kids had a blast designing and testing! I provided yarn, clay, tape, wooden skewers, mini umbrellas, and plastic eggs (for transmitters). I gave them a budget, each item costing a certain amount, which they had to add, subtract, etc. Here are some of the designs!
