Challenging our 4th graders at Baker to build their very own arcade games with only a few simple materials, a dash of imagination, and a sprinkle of ingenuity resulted in a whole new dimension of hands-on learning. These enterprising, young engineers shared their inventive masterpieces with peers and parents which provided endless amusement for the spectators at every twist and turn. Great job!
