to do when I was growing up was to build a fort out of things we had around the house. Sometimes the forts were small and simple, and sometimes they took up half of our basement. We even built forts outside using fences, trees, swing sets and lots of sheets &amp; blankets. Today, I built a fort to make a cozy reading spot!<br>My friend, Mrs. Kessel, a teacher at McCollough Unis sent me pictures of the forts her family made. One of the forts was big enough for the entire family to fit in for a movie night!<br><br>This week your challenge is to make the ULTIMATE FORT! Moms, Dads, brothers, and sisters are invited to join the fun.<br>Please send Ms. McCormick pictures of your ULTIMATE FORT to show me your creative building skills..<br><br>Send pictures to my email mccormk@dearbornschools.org.
