Here is a glimpse of one passion project in progress:
Joe, Dallas, & Aaron:
We are making a solar paneled tank. This tank will be modeled after WII tanks. It runs on solar power and it moves when it is exposed to sunlight. It has no way of stopping but it is still cool to watch! So far we were able to build the base of the tank and get it to move. Unfortunately we haven't had many sunny days to charge it and try the solar panel.
Here are some pictures of our WWII tank under construction.

| Here are the supplies our solar panel kit came with. |
 |
| It took forever to attach the wheel grips using these TINY screws |
 |
| We were able to add the bar that holds the wheel |
If you click here you can see a Google Slides presentation to teach people about WWII and tanks based on the research we conducted. We are still working on the presentation and plan to include the construction of our solar powered tank.

We look forward to sharing our Passion Project at the Middletown Village School Technology & Science Fair. Thanks for checking out the #MVSTechClub in action. For an insiders look at our Passion Projects follow Mr. Font on Twitter @MVS_MrFont
