This @BeaumondeBHJMS Grade 2 student is very proud of her simple machine. She should be - she planned, designed, built, experimented and improved her own pulley system over several sessions in the STEAM room. 👏 @TDSB_STEM

Education systems need to validate and celebrate the passion projects of the teachers in the building and use that expertise to broaden the capacity and learning of the students. If we don't, then we remain cemented in conformity.
