Our Rube Goldberg Project Highlighted by MA Department of Education!


Normandin 21st Century students participated in a four week collaborative engineering project that resulted in the creation and successful completion of an excellent Rube Goldberg Machine.  Students were involved in every aspect of this hands-on project which required a great deal of critical thinking and problem solving skills while building this elaborate machine made of recycled materials.  This year's (2013-2014) Department of Elementary and Secondary Education sponsored 21st Century statewide kickoff event featured a video of our Normandin students describing and setting in motion their Rube Goldberg Machine, we were very honored to be the only district highlighted at this event.

 
Check out what Mr. Walsh was able to do this summer with an amazing group of dedicated, curious, creative and enthusiastic students:
