The following reports were written by members of Engineers in Training during the third day of the program. Some elements may have been removed/edited for various reasons, but the text that remains is in the student's own words.

Gregory

I realy like this camp

Taylor

Today was fun. espectily when we did the bridge simulation. I really liked the buildng thing.

James

I had fun today making structures was fun more hands on activities would be better

Huma

Today class was okay. I learned about tension and compression. We also did many activities. My partner didn't help muc when we were constructing structures.

Samuel

I enjoyed the "Takes two to topple" , but I enjoyed "In straws we trussed" much more. The "Takes to Topple" could be sped up to make it more enjoyable, though.

Michelle

Today's class was a lot of fun. We learned how to know when Lego structures will topple or stay balanced. We used an applet to figure that our. After break we learned what tension and compression is. Then we used another applet to make structures. We are trying to see who can get the structure with the lowest tension and compression. It was fun.

Jake

This class is fun but, There was not enough free time and class cost to much. The class should be cheaper. I also think they should have better snacks (like popcorn). Then the camp would be SPECTACULAR!(almost)

Aleshia

Today we made grids.We made lego models.This class was fun.

Azariah

Today in class we played it takes two to topple and it was playing with legos and we got to figure out , if the different shapes of legos and if they would fall or not and that was kind of fun, but I really didn't like it.

Shannon

today in class we learn about thiongs todo with center of gravity.
