Humpty Dumpty

We learned that Humpty Dumpty was originally an English cannon. We learned about the engineering and technology of ancient Romans as they constructed walls. Grades 2 and 3 learned about fractions and polygons as they completed the origami section of the lesson. Everyone had fun with parachutes!

Code Divas get a surprise...

After the tough competition and with the break coming up, the ladies were surprised with a party instead of practice. They started with an engineering challenge: building a snowman from a few materials to meet the given criteria. In each progressive round, the challenge became increasingly difficult. Eventually, they were left with no other alternative but to combine their resources and work together. The ladies then enjoyed a snack and some laughs. It was a very nice afternoon.

These girls just couldn't seem to "let it go."
