During Term Project Week, students in The 4th Annual BISV Egg Drop Challenge (Grades 6–11) put their physics and engineering skills to the test by designing and building devices to protect an egg from impact. They first tested their designs by dropping them from a ladder before taking on the final challenge of dropping them from the roof of the school. It’s always such a fun and memorable project for our students, combining creativity, teamwork, and a little bit of suspense along the way! #BISV #TermProject #STEM #Engineering #HandsOnLearning

The Journey of Fun & Exploration Term Project gave Grade 5 students the opportunity to learn, create, and explore through a variety of exciting experiences. Throughout all last week, they visited Raynor Park, learned how to cook at Cucina Bambini, discovered hands-on exhibits at the Exploratorium, and explored wildlife from around the world at the Oakland Zoo. It was a memorable week filled with fun, discovery, and lasting memories with classmates. #BISV #TermProject #Grade5 #StudentLife #LearningBeyondTheClassroom

The Term Project Glass Blowing & Fusing gave students in Grades 9–11 the chance to explore the art of working with glass through hands-on experiences both on and off campus. During visits to the Bay Area Glass Institute, students learned the basics of glass blowing and created their own glass orbs. Back on campus, they experimented with glass fusion, creating jewelry, landscapes, and other unique pieces in the kiln. The week wrapped up with a Glass Showcase, where students displayed their finished work and celebrated a week of creativity, craftsmanship, and learning. Check out our blog to learn more about their Term Project experience. Link in bio. #TermProject #GlassBlowing #GlassFusion #HandsOnLearning

Term Project Spotlight! Our students in the Sports Careers Behind the Game Term Project (G9-G11) are getting an inside look at what it takes to run a professional sports organization. This week, they are visiting some of the Bay Area’s most iconic venues, including SAP Center, Levi’s Stadium, and Excite Ballpark, to explore the many careers that make game day possible. From marketing and media to event operations and facility management, students are discovering that there’s much more to sports than what happens on the field, court, or ice. This hands-on experience is helping them explore exciting career pathways throughout the sports industry. #TermProjectWeek #SportsCareers #LearningBeyondTheClassroom #CareerExploration
