This week our Kindergarten classes received a surprise visit from Dave Aguilera from CBS news. Everyone had a wonderful time learning about all the ways weather works. Follow the link here to view the short clip that was featured on the news.
Each week students come to design challenges to solve a problem connected to their classroom learning. They go through the design thinking process where they build empathy on the topic, define the problem, ideate solutions, create a prototype, and reflect/give feedback to each other. When they build their prototype we like to use recyclable items. We are in need of some items for upcoming builds! Toilet paper/paper towel rolls Plastic grocery bags Plastic containers Small cardboard boxes (shoe box size) We are also looking for volunteers to help support projects. Please check out the volunteer form here if you are interested. Thank you, Erin Blick
Please log in to your student’s Infinite Campus account to pay the $10.00 materials fee for the current school year.
