Cardboard Games and Imagination

Our class is trying to create a game from a cardboard box. We watched this video and discussed some different ideas. On Friday, March 17  we will have some time to work on our games. They may bring in their boxes and other supplies to create their game. We will use their creations for our 4th Grade Camp Day on March 29.

Field Trip Tomorrow – Henry Ford Museum

Tomorrow is our field trip to the Henry Ford Museum. We will be leaving the school around 9:00 a.m. Please remember to bring your bag lunch ( A bag that can be thrown away will work best for the students). There are several parents who are driving their child to the museum. The remaining students are riding on the bus with the teachers. Meet at the school by 9:00 so that we can arrive on time to the museum. (Thank you for offering to drive your child so that we only had to pay for one bus.)They are expecting us at 9:30. I have the tickets for the parents and students.

If you have any questions please email me.
