What a day!

Hello,

It was a day of building.  It was a day of solving problems.  Your child should be able to tell you at least five things that wouldn't work that they were able to figure out.  That is something to celebrate.  Some clung to the hope that I would swoop down and save the day, and they struggled the most, but that was few and far between.  Everyone who was able to make a contraption with at least six simple machines and could correctly point those out was given an A.  A couple kids met the challenge to have all seven, they scored an instant A+. 

It was a great day, but an exhausting day.  The homework club did the bulk of the clean up.  Thank you to them.  I would have been here until midnight. 

There was no math today due to Mrs. Viola's class going to Growstown School.  That gave our kids some extra building time, which they made great use of.

Good night.  Have a great Memorial Day weekend too.  I know we have another day, but I don't blog on Friday. 

Mr. Shea
