Learning Events @ the Start of School

This week we had a blast😄! We used synergy
 and  teamwork to create a mission statement for our class.
 
We also learned about needs and wants. We each got a slip of paper that had multiple activities we needed to accomplish. We had to use the iteams in front of us to make the objects that we were given on the slip of paper.  We learned about scarcity as we found out that we did not have enough materials to successfully make each item listed on the paper. 
 
 We also did a stem activity where we had to create a stack of Dixie cups and popcicle sticks to hold chapter books. Some of us went a little crazy🤣! When they fell there was and explosion of chaos! All of us worked hard to acheive our mission!   
Some of us were a little camera shy📸. We had to build a free standing structure using straws. It was difficult to accomplish. But we eventually we got it standing. We had to stick the straws inside each other or use a small amount of tape to tape it together. We noticed that tape did not hold together very well.  The other complicated part of this nation was that we could not use the tape to secure the structure to the table. 
We worked very hard this week and we  guarantee  we will work even harder next week.😉
