Mrs.
Moore’s Machine Unit
Highlight
– The Young Inventors Awards Program – A competition sponsored by Sears Roebuck and
Company and administered by the National Science Teachers Association.
The program offers all students (grades 2 – 8) the opportunity
to win savings bonds worth up to $10,000 by inventing a new tool
or modifying an existing one. Our goal is to encourage students
to use their creativity, imagination, and mechanical abilities
to solve problems. All entries will be judged in March with the
final results posted in May.
We are hoping
to send entries from as many students as possible (hopefully all
24).
