Finally, tonight was our first Family Night and STEM Challenge Reveal. We had a great turnout, had a lot of fun, and the kids did a fantastic job. Each creation was unique, creative and so very different. Source

Second, the kind were challenged with making a boat using one piece of aluminum foil that would support the weight of 100 pennies. Never mind that Ms. A accidentally brought freezer wrap…great opportunity to discuss that even adults make mistakes. Nevertheless, the kids were awesome as always and took on the challenge. With great success I might add. Source

What an amazing and activity filled day! Disclaimer, it will take AT LEAST three posts to cover everything. First, Ms. Rachel, from the Unicoi Extension Office came and did a “Tasty Bites” lesson. Mandarin oranges are yummy and healthy too. Source

Our silly kids are so creative and awesome! Today they hed the opportunity to create their own planet. They listed resources, jobs, laws, and characteristics. I really like the idea of gummy bears being a natural resource and puppies staying puppies forever. Source

Today I adapted a Centervision lesson and we talked about things in our lives that we can control and things we cannot control. The kids came up with AWESOME ideas for both! Source

They just love their Magna Tiles! Source

Getting into the spirit of things, today we created “Franken Worms”. Source

These guys are just to adorable and awesome! Source
