Mason Intermediate School fifth graders in Gifted Intervention Specialist Vicki Chappell and Lynne Hutchinson's nine classes recently designed a Learning Space for their school as part of a city-wide Design LAB Challenge. The chosen projects from this learning activity represented MI in the 2016 Design Lab Challenge held April 30-May 7.
More than 100 schools and 2,000 students participated in this year's architecture competition. Students presented their work to professionals in the architectural field, explaining their thinking through the design process.
