George Town Primary students visited CIS last week and played arcade games made by 3rd Grade students - their culminating project in STEAM class. Then, some 4th Grade students taught visiting students how to use Spheros. I was impressed by our student ambassadors @cayintschool

What did Ancient Civilisations ever do for us? A Grade 4 PBL unit of study has students explore some of the many innovative connections our society has to the past. Their answers to that question were presented at our most recent PBL celebration. @cayintschool
