Teacher passion on display as @MrRotstein walks our @HaldaneSchool visitors through our MS #STEAM curriculum. Engineering, fabrication, mass production strategies, design thinking and sustainability, all make the cut 🪚. #WeAreChappaqua

Designs on Chess! ♟ Bell students in Tech 8 are getting ready to put their creative minds to work by designing and crafting custom chess sets. To kick things off, @MrRotstein covered the basics of the game to get them fully prepared for the design process. #WeAreChappaqua

Another quarter, another golf course! Students really raised the bar this time, marrying form and function. We’ve even had a few themes like the classic, “crocs and socks” 🐊 🧦 Prepared for 3D printing in @tinkercad @warwhitney @geoffcurtis #WeAreChappaqua #REBellTone

What might you up-cycle from a coat hanger? How about a neat little foosball table toy? One of the many creative outcomes in @MrRotstein M.S. technology class! #WeAreChappaqua
