Building bridges and bouncing back! 🌉✨

Inspired by The Most Magnificent Thing, young engineers in Ms. Perez's class put perseverance into practice with a hands-on STEM challenge! Using just a piece of paper, tape, crayons, pencils, and toilet paper rolls, they set out to build a bridge strong enough to hold 24 "friends" (pencil toppers).

Through trial, error, and lots of redesigns, they proved that sticking with it leads to magnificent results! 💪✏️

🤝🦦 Teamwork makes the dream work in Ms. Small’s class! 💙

Our 3rd graders have been learning what it means to be a team and how we can work together to support our classroom family. They put those skills to the test with some fun teamwork challenges! 🎯

From Saving Fred 🪱 to Handless Cup Stacking 🥤, our River Otters had to communicate, collaborate, problem-solve, and encourage one another along the way!

We’re off to a great start building a classroom family where everyone has a part to play! 💙🦦

🔐🧩 Learning through teamwork! 🦦💙

Last week, our NKES staff put their problem-solving skills to the test with an escape room focused on active vs. passive learning! Our team experienced firsthand how active participation, collaboration, communication, and critical thinking can make learning more engaging and meaningful. 🙌

We had fun, learned a lot, and are ready to put these strategies into action as we Game On for an amazing school year! 🎯🏆
