'Robowheels' for STEM

C. Piscitelli

The 5/6 students have been working on designing, creating and trialing their "Robowheels' for STEM.  In this unit, students have been learning about different types of energy and how this can be used in everyday life.  Students will be bringing their Robowheels home next week!
