ISU Field Trip!

Yesterday the two Honor's Science classes at Taylorview headed to ISU for National Engineers Week. Everybody participated in different areas to make projects whether it be: perpetual motion, edible cars, clay boats, spaghetti bridges, electric car, and mousetrap car. Ally, Shaylyn, and me all did edible cars.. and despite our efforts we didn't walk away with any prizes, just very sticky hands. We put alot of effort into it, but walking into the competition blind is pretty hard. The day was still so much fun! We played around alot and met tons of new people.. Plus, even though my group didn't win, Taylorview still won 1/2 to 3/4 of the awards. THat's right! We dominated!!



Both classes

Me and Katie on the bus


I met a new friend!
Our car died a painful death at the end of the ramp
To celebrate our wins in class Friday we had a little party with Root Beer and dry ice.


Our second food car! Rice Krispies, kisses, pretzels, and marshmallow wheels. We even put a liscense plate on it that said: "UBUGME"
We were really bored on our way down!! haha
