Cannon Elementary STEM scholars are putting their engineering skills to work for a good cause during the holiday season! For our annual community service project, Cannon scholars are raising money to donate to a local chapter of the charity, Habitat for Humanity. The project is called "Homes For the Holidays". Scholars in each grade level are designing and creating "home-themed" ornaments to be sold at this week's Holiday Choir Concert, scheduled for Thursday, December 12th. 2nd graders have created an ornament modeled after a historic building in Downtown Grapevine. Students are currently working on an interactive map of Downtown that include pictures of several buildings. All scholars are using the Engineering Design Process to create their ornament. Each grade level will display their ornaments on a grade level tree and ornaments will be "sold" for a suggested donation of $2.00. All proceeds will be donated directly to Habitat for Humanity and a representative from the local office in Dallas will come to Cannon to accept the donation.
