A big thank you to Mr. Peter Huber and Mr. Anthony DiVasta from Rochester Institute of Technology for giving our 7th grade students (and Mrs. Christa!) a hands-on lesson in the Toyota Lab. Mr. DiVasta challenged students to build a Minion three different ways: without any directions, with better directions, and with improved materials and tools. Students discovered how manufacturing processes can become faster and more efficient. Mr. Huber then connected this concept to our current science unit, showing how human body systems work together efficiently to keep us alive.
Students finished the day with a campus tour to see all they can study in college at RIT. A few of our students are particularly inspired by Ms. Orzel's Media Arts class this year and have expressed interest in the RIT School of Film & Animation.
