you can't catch me...…..I'm the blankner bulldog!

11/22/2019

 
Our youngest Bulldogs were presented with a fun STEAM challenge this month:
The 3D Printed Blankner Bulldog has escaped the Steam Lab! He taunts the teachers and students as they chase him throughout the school.  
Run, Run You Move Like A Log. You Can't Catch Me I'm The Blankner Bulldog! The students all laugh and the teachers give chase. That is until the Blankner Bulldog finds himself at the end of a peer looking onto a very large lake! The Blankner Students decide to help. They have learned about civil engineers and they want to build the bulldog a bridge so he can cross the lake and escape.  

Our students study different bridge models with the VR goggles and are tasked with a challenge of building a bridge that is long enough to get across the lake and sturdy enough to hold the Blankner bulldog.
