It’s Summertime!
Hey, SWENexters! Happy summer! Even the SWENext Newsletter takes the summer off, so this is our last newsletter issue of the school year. Since we won’t be back until September, we’ve included lots of ideas for what you can do this summer. Enjoy your summer, be safe and keep engineering!
Here are three STEM activities you can try at home.
- Think like a Civil Engineer and make a tower you can eat!
Snack Time Edible Structure Instructions - Think like a Mechanical Engineer and make a roller coaster for a marble.
Pool Noodle Marble Run Instructions - Think like a Chemical Engineer and study fluid flow with a water wall.
Do It Yourself (DIY) Water Wall Instructions
