Design Challenge: Levels of Reality
This design challenge will ask teams to explore the nature of matter and energy. We do this by disassembling matter into energy from the ecology to energy and every step in between. This is important because to reframe what we are exploring here at Mezzacello Urban Farm, It’s good to know what size or scale you are at!

It’s not enough for something to be small; it must also come with the magic that is ONLY possible when you are dealing with the world of very short distances and volumes that even light has issues with.

Lesson: NHCOPS and the Ladder of Life
Students will become familiar with both the periodic table of the elements, periodicity, and the DNA composition of life.
