Fifth Grade Building 3D Shapes from Strawbees

Fifth Grade Math has kicked off the year with a study of the relationship between vertices, faces, and edges of 3D shapes. Strawbees were the prototyping tool of choice for building their first cubes, prisms and pyramids. Additional photos are on the school website.

Third Grade "Journey" from Recycled Materials

To kick off the school year, the third-grade students made something that shows what they hope their third-grade journey will be,  using only recycled materials. "Journey" is the theme for htird grade. Unfortunately, I was so busy in the moment that I only got three photos, but I promise to take more if they come back soon. Stop by the new eurekaLab at back to school night to see their projects first-hand. The third grade also did the best clean-up job I've ever seen! So happy to have them in our brand-new space.
