Cardboard Challenge
Good Evening Parents,
The 4th and 5th grade classes are participating in a cardboard challenge in honor of Earth Day. Students are creating a game that is primarily made out of a cardboard box (other materials can be used as well, but the main material should be cardboard). If you have not had the chance to watch the video, Caine’s Arcade, please do so. I attached the link in the Class News blog. The focus is to use recycled materials in honor of Earth Day, please don’t run out and buy items.
Tomorrow, students will have the chance to work on their projects during Science, so they can bring materials in. I understand there may be work that needs to be done at home or with the help of a parent as well. This project will also be used for a grade for engineering design in Science. The students chose to work solo or with a partner, either is fine.
Your child will have a chance to share their game with the lower grades at the end of April (exact date TBD). Students from grades k-3 will have the chance to play the games while your child runs them 🙂 Should be a fun activity for all to enjoy! I attached some pictures below of some students’ projects from last year for ideas or motivation.
Happy Making 🙂
