Home School Class - Da Vinci’s Inventions, Session II

Da Vinci tried to solve the problems of the day. He invented a revolving bridge, and utilized his own unique code so no one could copy his notes. Engage your inventive mind and use basic materials to manufacture a water filter, explore and build different kinds of bridges, study codes and create one of your own!
