[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The EEF recently visited the FAB LAB at North Broadway. Teacher, Marcie Kurka, runs her FAB LAB every Friday. Using Rube Goldberg's ideas, there is a cart with all sorts of items.....string, rubber bands, popsicle sticks, etc. Students are given tasks and work in small groups to accomplish the task. The day we visited, students had a stack of task cards they could select from. We saw bridges, airplanes, rockets, and I think one group laid out city streets. Other weeks, the class tests items....one rainy day they checked to see if a tarp was really water resistant and why. Students' comments: We LOVE Fridays!![/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_btn title="READ MORE" shape="square" color="inverse" css_animation="fadeIn" link="url:https%3A%2F%2Fescondidoeducation.org%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2018%2F05%2FInnovation-Awards-2017-2018-Kurka.pdf||target:%20_blank|"][/vc_column][/vc_row]
