Design Challenge During Theme Time

During 'Theme Time ' today, students worked in small groups on two different 'Design Tech' challenges. 1) paper tower challenge, 2) the slowest marble. Please be sure to ask your child about both of these great activities.

Mystery Skype

Today Team Couloir took part in a mystery Skype. This is where we ask Yes/no questions to an unknown, 'mystery', classroom in an effort to determine where they are from and vice versa. Some questions our class asked: 'are you East of the Prime Meridian?', 'do you have Cacti for plants?' 'Do you live near the Atlantic Ocean?', 'are you land locked?'. The class we worked with was from Mississippi.

A Conversation About Bullying and Harrassment

Please be sure to ask your child about their visit 'back in time'.
