Students in language arts read Secret of Yellow Death and Fever 1793, then made mosquito traps as an experiment to see how to catch mosquitoes and stop them from spreading disease. #ExperienceWCS #EdgewoodSTEM
Science students dealt with "toxic popcorn," working to move kernels from one cup to another without spilling, using only a rubber band and 6 ropes. Lots of redesigning and laughter! #ExperienceWCS #EdgewoodSTEM
Automation & Robotics learn from Miss Ashley how the turfbot works. Students get an opportunity to drive the turfbot. #edgewoodSTEM #experienceWCS
Mr. Denlinger showed the Automation & Robotics students about the smart scrubber. The scrubber is automated and reads QR codes around the school which tells the scrubber where to go. Automation is all around us! #edgewoodSTEM #experienceWCS
Design & Modeling students are collecting data from Science 8 students. Science 8 students are solving puzzle cubes designed by the Design & Modeling students. The collected data will be analyzed. #edgewoodSTEM #experiencewcs
Mrs. Helser's honors language arts class researched lesser known events in history, then created podcasts about these events. #ExperienceWCS #EdgewoodSTEM
Students are learning how to play Euchre for Mrs. Helser's enrichment activity. #ExperienceWCS
Mrs. Hawn's Everyday Skills recently studied Child Development. To wrap up the unit they took a field trip to the Warsaw Early Learning Academy to play with the children. #ExperienceWCS
Exploring French students worked on their feast project, in which they presented on a French food that they made! Two groups were able to use Mrs. Hawn's FACS lab to work. #ExperienceWCS
Exploring German students made and presented models of German monuments in class. #ExperienceWCS

Mass Measurement - students in science are learning the difference between weight and mass, and are using special scales to measure mass. #ExperienceWCS #EdgewoodSTEM
Our favorite lab of the school year: making cookies from scratch, then eating them! Thanks, Mrs. Hawn! #ExperienceWCS #EdgewoodSTEM
Students learned about iteration - trying, then redesigning to improve on the original. New paper towers, still build with only a certain number of pieces of paper, were much taller and sturdier the second time around! #ExperienceWCS #EdgewoodSTEM
Students need to package a Pringle in a way to protect it from damage when it is shipped! #ExperienceWCS #EdgewoodSTEM
Make your own paper? Yes, please! Miss Morris, Edgewood's art teacher, has her students making their own paper! #ExperienceWCS #EdgewoodSTEM
Automation & Robotics course sees automation live at Medtronic. Students see the real impact that implants can have on the quality of life. #experienceWCS #edgewoodSTEM
Automation & Robotics course visits Medtronic to see automation in action. #experiencewcs #edgewoodSTEM
Students in biology gather germ samples from various locations around Edgewood. They are trying to identify the dirtiest locations by using how much bacteria grows on their Petri dishes. They will then create a potential solution to help get the area clean. #ExperienceWCS #EdgewoodSTEM
Manufacturing Education Part 1 - students learned about budgets in real life. How much do manufacturing jobs pay, and what can you afford for housing, cars, and entertainment? #ExperienceWCS #EdgewoodSTEM
