Friday is a catchup and reach-day.
We are starting by letting you quickly finish your rocket design if you need that time. Hopefully, almost everyone has that done though.
If you are done, you get to design something on your own. If you finish it, we will vote as a class to see what we will 3D print and you will get it today or you will be able to pick it up at Glenns RCC sometime soon : )
Have your parent email me to ask about getting it later.

Show and Tell and Rocket Launches
At 12:00 parents are invited to our classroom (158) for a short show-and-tell where students can share the things they designed on the computer and what they were able to get printed. Mr. Dorsey will share other regional STEM opportunities your family can consider when your students get older.
At around 12:15, we will walk down to the RCC parking lot to do the rocket launches and take a class picture. The show and tell and rocket launches are optional for parents. We should be done at around 12:30 for parent pickup.

If your student enjoys STEM, here are some other regional opportunities you might want to consider in the coming years.
Chesapeake Bay Governor's School (CBGS)
The Chesapeake Bay Governor's School for Marine and Environmental Science is your region's STEM magnet school open to area public school students from 10th to 12th grade. Students apply while in 9th grade.
If you are interested, it is worth talking to guidance now to discuss your student's math track. Students should need to have geometry finished before enrolling in CBGS, but having Algebra II done before enrolling usually leads to students performing better.
