Mr. Oldaker's class had a project to build an amusement park. The lab teaches students to work together learning about different careers in engineering and construction. It helps students to better understand physics, using levers, pullege and gears. Not only do students have to read and understand blue prints, they learn step by step instructions. They have inquiry to problem solving when something does not work correctly.

Freshman students have bee taught Physical Science each school year with very little lab time. This lab shows students how much fun school and science can be and how gratifying it is when the students finish a part of the amusement park.
