7th & 8th Grade Coding Boat Project at Academy of the Holy Names, Tampa
At the Academy of the Holy Names Tampa, 7th and 8th grade Web Design and Coding class kicked off the 2024-25 school year with an engaging hands-on project.
Students worked in small groups to design and construct foil boats, testing how many pennies their creations could hold. This activity was more than just a fun experiment; it introduced students to essential problem-solving skills and iterative design. By building, testing, and refining their boats, students got a practical introduction to the core concepts of engineering and creativity that will shape their projects throughout the year.
