Intro to Engineering (AR and DM)

• This school year the students will learn a wide variety of engineering terms and topics. We will be creating in the classroom using computers and other materials. I'm excited for the new school year and giving the students a fun and educational experience. E-mail me at erik.hill@sausd.us with any questions.

  I will also be teaching 8th grade Math.
