Our Engineering Classes are learning about simple machines and how to calculate mechanical advantage. They had to identify the simple machines in a combine harvester and then build a working replica of that simple machine as it works in the combine. The students are building and coding their machines, while recording their design process in their engineering notebooks.
Ms. Keesee is also working with John Deere to get the kids to a combine or a combine to them so they can see a combine in person!
