Update of schedule

Hi everyone!

We will complete the boats (final test run) and start the MagLev (magnetic levitation) on Dec 22nd. Then, after the holiday break, we will continue with the MagLev project.

Remember that we will have time to fine-tune each project in April before the competition at CPEP day.

Update

Hi everyone,

We missed this week and we will miss next week due to meetings and election day.

We will meet on Tuesday, November 10th and we will be working on building and testing the boats.

Make sure you are there so you can finish your boats on time.

If you have any questions or concerns, please see me in room C209 or email me at dandrade@bridgeportedu.net

Tuesday, October 20th we will start the building of the boats. Remember last meeting we did the design of the boats. Tomorrow you will finalize the designs and then start construction.

Remember, don't start cutting the foam until you are sure of your design.

Welcome to CPEP!

Welcome to CPEP for the 2009-2010 school year. I'm glad so many people have come back from last year and it's great to see the new faces.

Remember to bring in your registration forms and permission slips as soon as possible.

TODAY's ACTIVITY (Tuesday, September 29th, 2009)

Go to this site: http://www.grc.nasa.gov/WWW/K-12/airplane/glider.html

Read this entire page and then click on "Gliding Flight" NEXT at the bottom of the screen. You will then read the next page.

From here, do an internet search for paper airplanes. You and your team mates need to find a design, make it, and test it in the room. At the end of today, we will test them in the hall. The team with the plane that goes the furthest, wins.

Good luck!
