Enrichment

Welcome to enrichment. It's fun to have a bunch of new 2nd and 3rd graders this year. So far, we have been working on creative problem solving, logic problems, and our Project Paradigm. This class is going to research the topic of waste and find a creative way to solve the problem. The students have been super creative in finding ways to "reuse" materials and create something else. Please encourage them to "think outside the box." We are trying to move them away from "right" or "wrong" answers.

 Welcome back to enrichment! I am having so much fun with your students. They are an energetic, creative bunch. Our primary activities this fall will be working on a school newspaper and research ideas for Project Paradigm. We will also be working on logic problems, creative problem solving, and science/research concepts. Here are a few photos from our first few weeks. Josh and Aaron display their egg drop contraption. James (my son and helper for the day) drops one of the egg containers. Another contraption created in an effort to prevent an egg from cracking. Trying to "save Fred."
