    Pre-Engineering: Design & Modeling
    The Design & Modeling courses highlight the design process and encourage students to be creative and critical thinkers as they use the principles of engineering to solve problems. As pre-engineers, students are expected to document their thinking and techniques through journaling activities and portfolio creation. Grading is largely determined by these portfolios and through successful completion of design challenges.
       Design & Modeling (Tech A) meets twice per week for nine weeks.
    Key topics in Grade 5 include:
    • Graphic Design
    • Engineering Careers
