Afterschool enrichment teacher Carla Truman strives to make her time with students hands-on and fun! As the pictures show, students really enjoy the special projects she plans for them.
Toothpicks and miniature marshmallows provide ample opportunity for creative engineering designs. Designs are also edible!
