Students at the CPS and FKO summer program worked on putting the final touches on their restaurants, making menus, food, and posters! For the past few weeks students were asked to come up with an idea for a restaurant. They could be creative in what they served and the menus they came up with. The students then worked on pricing and designing the interior of their buildings. We can't wait to see the final products!

Students in the 1st and 2nd grade worked on testing different materials to create bubble wands for their Museum of Science activity time. After all the testing this week we can't wait to see what cool designs they come up with!

The students are not only learning but are working really hard and having fun!
