Mrs. Fears' 5th graders completed a winter Lego challenge. Each student had a different task to create using Legos. Some tasks included: build a shelter to stay warm from cold, build a device to transport a penguin egg, and build a device that throws snowballs. They showed creativity and ingenuity in their designs

Winter Break
Today, students took part in a festive North Pole adventure! ❄️ They explored the North Pole using virtual reality, then put their engineering skills to work by designing and building houses complete with chimneys. To wrap it up, students practiced early coding by programming their Ozobots as Santa’s delivery helpers, guiding them along snowy routes from house to house to “deliver” gifts. This hands-on STEM experience was facilitated by Khaela Powell, ITRT. 🎄🦌✨
