Back In The Saddle!


 





Organizing for the challenge!






We returned to school today after a generous two week break! It was business as usual as we met as an entire school community in the multi-purpose room for All School Meeting. Ms. Harvey led the children in a greeting which was followed by News and Announcements. What typically follows is an activity that involves the children gathering in mixed grade groups engaging in a challenge. Today's challenge required the children to dress in their cold weather gear, head outside, and build a prototype of a winter survival shelter that could keep a rock (or a team member's hand) dry while Ms. Harvey pored a cup of water over it!


Widening the search for natural materials.

Ice chunks and snow pass the test!
