Focusing on being collaborative, problem solvers, creative, and optimistic in our Big Foot challenge. Lots of ingenious designs from our 3rd grade friends today! #weared34 #glengroved34

Using our @KaganOnline structures to engage learners in solving our problem in keeping Big Foot hidden! Thank you @JENEVANSatKAGAN for teaching Pair Share and Pairs Compare. The kids love having more talk time!! #weared34 #glengroved34

Focusing on the finer details today with our Big Foot challenge. Students created stairs to get into a shelter, a purple zipline for a quick escape, and green leaves on a treehouse. All important features of their designs! #weared34 #glengroved34

Students are working through the inquiry process to creatively help Big Foot who is close to being found! #glengroved34

Challenge time!! Students are working hard constructing different structures using @Rigamajig. Everything from cars to working cranes to a movie theater with slushy machine, these designs couldn't be more creative! #weared34 #glengroved34

3rd graders were busy today constructing their own sound structures. It’s been awhile since we were able to use these materials, but we’re back at it! #weared34

Inquiry is alive in our #GOAL classrooms this week! Ss needed to design a solution to protect everyone from the bubble gum rain. So many creative ideas from planes that suck up the gum & transport people to their destinations to fancy umbrellas! #weared34

Inquiry challenges @GlenGroveSchool look a little different this year. However, the students continue practicing being resilient, flexible in their thinking, and creative in order to invent solutions to solve problems! #weared34

Excited to be starting a new book on a rainy afternoon. Can't wait to read about design thinking from @ajjuliani and @spencerideas

Last day of our Paper Circuit Challenge at GG. Every student in the building went home with a working circuit! #weared34 #glengroved34

More paper circuits on the agenda today!! The kids are loving being able to take home a working circuit they created! #weared34 #glengroved34

Working hard on paper circuits today! We are definitely testing patience and resiliency of all kids coming through the challenge! #weared34 #glengroved34

A very thorough explanation of his 747 airplane. I hope you never lose your imagination! #weared34 #glengroved34

More samplings of our @codewithroot relay races! These kids were so determined to get around the racetrack! #weared34 #glengroved34
