(nature sculpture by Andy Goldsworthy)

Use what you have learned this year about engineering in the great outdoors.  This week’s challenge is to go outside wherever you are (your yard, the woods by your home, the campground where your family is staying, the lakeshore, . . . ) and build something using only items you find there.  It could be something useful, something artistic, something to play with, or . . .

Check out the imaginative sculptures this artist created as surprises for people to find in the woods! Artist Spencer Byles spent a year in the woods making his organic art.

You can attach your thoughts as a comment or e-mail me photos of your engineering design.  Kick off the summer by digging into the outdoors!
