Students Gear Up for 2020 K'Nex Challenge
Fifteen brave Lower School students and three ambitious Middle School students have chosen to participate in the 2020 K’Nex Challenge. Divided into teams, our students have brainstormed, formulated, and are building a K’Nex machine designed to conserve energy, reduce air and water pollution, lower our electricity consumption, and create a healthier planet.
Each team will be responsible for recreating their machine from scratch within two hours at the competition and share a two minute or less presentation with the judges. This competition encourages students to think about and come up with possible solutions to global challenges. Through teamwork and collaboration, students turn ideas into masterpieces! Blueprints are generated, journals written, photos taken, and presentations created. It’s a busy, fun, stressful, and imaginative time for all of our students. Under our supervision and guidance, they have proven that they are all up for the K’Nex Challenge!
