Zipline Races at CPMS!
In Mrs. Evans' 6th grade Science classes at CPMS, students engaged in an exciting hands-on learning experience by racing zipline racers as they explored the Engineering Design Process. Over the past week, they learned, reviewed, and applied this process to build their racers, discovering that adding potential energy was crucial for success. Each class held a race to crown a champion, and nearly all students were eager to participate in the excitement by attending school!
