🚀 **DAY 2 at STARBASE Tulsa = BIG BUBBLES, COOL CIRCUITS & EPIC ENGINEERING CHALLENGES!** 🤩⚡
Osage Elementary brought their A-GAME today, and things got a little ELECTRIC, a little BUBBLY, with a bit of competitive FUN! 🧪
Check out what our future scientists and engineers were up to:
⚡ **Circuit Builders:** Students connected the dots (and wires!) with Snap Circuits to bring their electrical creations to life!
🫧 **Bubble Trouble:** Things got bubbly with Double Bubble Trouble as students explored exothermic and endothermic reactions. Their teacher even brought out the BIG bubbles with an Elephant Toothpaste demonstration! 🐘
🤖 **Coding Commanders:** Students programmed Spheros using simple and complex codes. These little robots had some serious moves!
🏎️ **Chariot Challenge:** Ready, set, TOW! Students designed and built their own chariots to see how much weight their Spheros could pull. Would their prototypes be strong enough to handle the challenge? Time to put those engineering skills to the test!
