Our 5th and 6th-graders teamed up last week for an awesome Thanksgiving-themed STEM challenge! Students collaborated to disguise their turkeys and designed creative βHow to Catch a Turkeyβ traps using engineering skills, problem-solving, and a whole lot of imagination.
From popcorn disguises to soda-can turkeys and everything in between, these Roadrunners showed teamwork, creativity, and critical thinking every step of the way.
We love seeing our students bring learning to life through hands-on, fun, and festive STEM activities! πβ¨
