Mr. Fleener's students created a house out of cardboard and a type of insulation of their choice. They insulated the walls and the ceiling with insulation. They also created "attic" space and insulated it as well. Owen Kremer and Aiden Bergfeld created a house that only lost 2 degrees of temperature in the time we left them outside.
