MATH: Measurement: perimeter and area using pattern blocks and/or linking cubes
We had the opportunity to meet MsTavares' Titia (alter ego) who challenged us to designing/prototyping a Car Build. We will be embarking on Engineering Design Process; blueprints due Wednesday and building our prototypes next Thursday (parents are welcome to join us during the morning or afternoon build day)
HEALTH: Digital Citizenship online course via EVERFI and beginning anti-bullying discussions.
** Winter Concert: Save the Date students in Room 204, under the instruction of our music teacher Mr Swinkin, will be performing at the annual Winter Concert on Thursday December 13th, started at 6:00pm in our school gymnasium

Iteration Time! #STEM pic.twitter.com/F5Tfvf8U7I
