This week in ELA, the fourth grade students explored the Eureka! Student Inventor unit. Student teams faced an engineering challenge to design a way to lift a standard ping-pong ball from a table, pass it around the group, ensure each member had control for at least three seconds, and deposit it into a cup without touching the ball. Through teamwork and problem-solving, every group successfully met the challenge and earned their collaboration wedge!

Mrs. Bierman's second grade students didn't catch the sneaky leprechaun with the traps that Mrs. Lee's high school class had made. But, the students were left with gold necklaces and magic rocks. They used a magic potion to melt the rock and found gold inside! They also enjoyed shamrock shakes as a special treat! ☘️
