This week the kindergarten, first, and second graders are working on building vertically. We have ready the book “Dream Up: A Celebration of Building” by Christy Hale. In this book we see how the materials we use to build and play as students/children can one day inspire real buildings! The students have been using Connectors, LEGOs, and Keva Planks to stretch their building skills and think vertically.

Building Up in 1st grade! Pyramids are interesting shapes! Building sturdy bases is important when using connectors. Measuring in inches and centimeters. How tall can a tower get using only seven blocks?
