These photos are from a prototype sharing activity, where the science students are looking for feedback from their users.

The sixth-grade students have Junior-Kindergarten as their class buddies. In Life Science class the sixth-grade learns about the animals that inhabit our campus. In this design thinking project the sixth-graders are taking their knowledge about local birds and are learning how best to teach the 4 year olds about birds; they hope to do it through games, and age-appropriate toys. 

How about a playhouse that looks like a tree nest, complete with wings to try on.
