K12 Outreach with Linda Hamilton

TAG City

October 22, 2012

As the classes came to RTI they stopped to see the LEGO City that can be operated over the web.

Their Hare and Tortoise project ran too.

Then they started to build their own city.

The newspaper came to see.

Cabell County talented and gifted students learned about different modes of transportation through hands-on learning.
The Rahall Transportation Institute teamed with Cabell county students for LEGO education
as part of the institute's Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics program.

The TV came to see their city.

We learned about PATH that RTI sponsors.
The Paul Ambrose Trail for Health (PATH) is a growing bicycle and pedestrian trail system providing free,
healthy recreational opportunities for the City of Huntington and surrounding areas.

Cabell County students in the Talented and Gifted program took part in a LEGO event today hosted by the Rahall Transportation Institute.
The LEGO event allows students to gain knowledge of the different modes of transportation through hands-on learning.
The students had to build a city, working together and then discuss the various parts that they made and how transportation affects everyone.
The students learn to use science, technology, engineering, mathematics, safety and communication concepts, through hands-on learning.

Time to clean up and say good bye.
