Students at our Phoenix School-Archway Academy, are studying the conservation of energy by creating a Roller coaster. They first had to design their plans on the computer. Once the plans were completed, students learned about Potential, Kinetic and Mechanical Energy. Students then created their Roller coaster with 1 loop and 2 hills, with a minimum of a 1 meter drop.
Enjoy the ride!
FANTASTIC Teacher!
Dr. Josefa Olivarez, the Principal at our Mangum Elementary campus, thinks Mr. Michael Bourquin is FANTASTIC!!! Mr. Bourquin worked with his 3rd grade Art students to create masterpieces for Cupid's Strike, our scholarship fundraiser. The students worked on these pieces under his direction, and did a phenomenal job thanks to his guidance and expertise. We thank Mr. Bourquin for sharing his artistry with our students!
