Week of Feb. 20

Olympic Maker Week!!

The last full week of each month is our maker week.  The students really look forward to this all month.  The theme for our February maker week was the Winter Olympics!  Here are a few of the activities that students did.

Creating Lego flags and Lego ski hills




Coloring in the countries participating in the winter olympics on our world map using an Atlas



Drawing athletes and country flags




Completing a curling "challenge".  The students had to design and build a curling "stone" that they could slide to hit the target.


Coding the Sphero to do an "ice skating" routine



Students were also able to use the Osmos and record themselves reading books aloud to share with younger students through Flipgrid.




It was such a fun maker week!

Rebecca Caudill Voting Party

We had quite a few students read three or more of the Rebecca Caudill Award books and attend our voting party!  Students voted for their favorite books, had snacks, and played a Kahoot game based on the books.  The winning books were (tie) Drowned City and Beneath.



Happy Reading!
