Joyful Reflections

It was a week of reflection and joyful celebration in the Otter classroom. We spent ample time looking through photos, art, and writing from throughout the year. Students had an opportunity to review their work, marvel over their growth, and select pieces to share with their families at our Spring Celebration of Learning! The engineering sandbox was hopping as young engineers grappled with bringing the ideas in their minds to fruition and struggled with reaching compromises when engineers had differing ideas. We are discovering time and time again that engineering is a tough but rewarding endeavor. In our frog aquarium we observed back legs on a couple of our larger tadpoles! This week our mathematicians were working on modeling tricky story problems and demonstrating their thinking through diagrams, equations, and words.
