Desktop Zip Lines -- GATE STEM for Upper Elementary
Students not only study physical science, they design with it, build with it, they write about it, calculate with it, and they live it.
It’s the engineering process in miniature as our engineering teams design and then build desktop ziplines from scratch. Students will draft plans, build zipline towers, choose the best zippy materials, and assemble their ziplines. Hey, it’s incredible fun . . . but it’s not just fun and games here! Students will use their ziplines to collaborate on a physica
