During the final weeks of the school year, the annual tradition of Jodie Day’s third-grade class holding a wax museum continued as the final part of a research project. During the project, students work on an autobiography, and share important items with the class. Items can be anything, such as photos, jewelry, sports cards, or other things. The project is done at the end of the year, as it allows students to learn things about classmates. After that project, students then research another person, write a biography, and create a fact poster to display information about that person. The final step is to dress the part, have props, and pretend to be wax forms of the person. Family, friends, and other classes are invited to then walk through the museum as students do their best to stay still throughout.

As our final post from the transportation class custom bicycle project, we wanted to show you the full group. This project showed our students taking part in a creative and fun project where they had to design and handle all aspects of creating a custom bike. We hope you’ve enjoyed seeing the creations over the past several weeks! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride

The final bike in the transportation class custom bicycle project was another made my Mr. Salvia. This one features two 24x1.95-inch wheels in the front, and a 26x1.95-inch wheel in the back and it can be difficult to ride. A student also helped with this bike, which Mr. Salvia calls “The Transporter.” William Neske took it all apart for Mr. Salvia, painting and greasing all parts before putting it back together. Mr. Salvia said the bike works well on flat surfaces at a medium speed. Over rough terrain, it could be a little sketch. He would recommend the bike in a factory setting as it could be ridden and carry items in the basket. Eli Jones was also working on a second design that features three wheels. It still needs work and some re-designing, but he will be working that out in the future. The kick bicycle is called “Whatchamacallit.” A great job by all involved with these two bikes! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride

Frank Brown’s kick bicycle is the next in line for the transportation class custom bicycle project. This was made from parts of many bicycles and he designed and fabricated it. The bike has four wheels: two 20x2.125-inch wheels, and two center support 6-inch wheels. It also has BMX handlebars. The bike length is 85 inches! His favorite part is the long frame and he calls the bike “Crazy.” Very nice work! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride

Malachi Barringer’s bike for the transportation class custom bicycle project is made from parts of three bicycles. He designed and fabricated it alongside Killian McGowan. The bike has a 27-inch front wheel and fork, and a 20-inch wheel on the back. It also features custom handlebars and an adjustable seat post. He said he feels the bike is difficult to ride because of the large front wheel, so you have to start out slow to get used to it. His favorite part of the bike is the front wheel and he calls it “Big Wheel.” That is a great bike! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride

At the end of June, the fourth-quarter multimedia arts class raced their wind-powered cars! All of the cars were made by students on the Makerspace’s 3D printer, Glowforge, and Cricut machines. Austin Scutt came in first place and set a new sixth-grade record when his car traveled 33 feet, 9 inches! Great work! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride

Hayden Coons is showing off his bike “Black Hawk” as part of the transportation class custom bicycle project. This is a kick-type scooter and is made from parts of four bicycles. He did all the work to design, fabricate, as well as paint and grease it. The bike has a 16x2.125-inch front wheel, two 7-inch wheels on the back, BMX handlebars with a custom grab bar attached, and a frame length of about 40 inches. His favorite part is the grab bar. Great work! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride

Killian McGowan’s bike for the transportation class custom bicycle project was made from parts of two tricycles, and parts of other bicycles. He designed and fabricated it. The long tricycle-style bike has an 11-inch front wheel, two 6.5-inch wheels on the back, and a 61-inch frame. He also needed to use a piece of angle iron for the extra strength for the center of the frame. His favorite part is the curved seat and he calls his bike “The Pink Panther.” Another outstanding bike! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride

At the end of the school year, the Class of 2023 took the senior trip to Philadelphia and Hershey Park! A fantastic time to end the year! See more photos on our Facebook page! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride

Jeff Shelton’s bicycle for the transportation class custom bicycle project was made from parts of four bikes. He designed, fabricated, took it apart, painted and greased all areas. The bike features an 18-inch front fork, custom handlebars, a 45-inch chain, and an adjustable seat post. He welded the joints together and it has 16x2.00 tires. His favorite part is the custom handlebars. The bike is called Chop and the chopper-style bike is fun to ride. Jeff plans to hang the bike in his shop in the future. Fantastic work! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride

Joseph Fay’s bike is called “Back Three” and it is made from parts of seven bicycles and is part of the transportation class custom bicycle project. He designed and fabricated it, and then took it all apart, painted and greased all areas. The bike has four 20x2.00 tires, a 59-inch chain, adjustable seat post, and his favorite part is the custom handlebars. Great job! #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride
