Eighth graders have just finished their work on a collaborative effort of the middle school Art Tech and Science classes. For the ATOM VIDEO project, students creatively combined art, science, math, and engineering. Students constructed virtual 3D Bohr models of atoms with the Tinkercad computer-aided design app. Students used their atom models in videos, which inform viewers about elements the eighth graders are researching in science class.
Sixth grade Art Tech students have recently been creating plant and animal CELL PILLOWS by sewing with needles and thread. The pillow designs are based on students’ drawings of reference illustrations. The organelles of the cell pillows were affixed to the surface of the cloth with fabric glue. Students stuffed their pillows with poly-fill. In this display, all of the pillows represent plant cells.
