Third graders used engineering and teamwork to build the tallest possible tower in thirty minutes using only paper, scissors, and tape. We tested each tower and all of them held a roll of tape for a minute. Well done young engineers!
4th grade students compete during a friendly building competition and pausing for a photo shoot during an afternoon movement break.
Ms Karen from FARMs at the Y came to visit our third graders. We discussed kitchen habits and knife skills then taste tested locally grown cucumbers and carrots! We can’t wait for our monthly cooking lesson and trying lots of new recipes. So fortunate to collaborate with one of our community partners.
First week in PE with k-5 was wonderful with team building skills, building classroom contracts, and fun! Can’t wait for the rest of the year!
Mr Coleman’s students working through the “Cup Challenge,” a team building exercise.
Third graders attempted to build a catapult without and instructions. They found it very challenging and were unsuccessful. After discussing what they needed, they were given an article about what a catapult is and instructions. Realizing one of the powers of reading is learning how to do new things! We also discussed how in non-fiction pictures help us better understand. They successfully built a catapult and launched marshmallows across the room.
