I gave my grade eight class some pencil boxes today. I often feel like giving gifts to my students at the end of the year, so I do.
It was amazing to watch them try to put them together. For the most part, they struggled, providing every reason for more STEAM programming. I was shocked at how long it took some of them to figure out. Then, too, why they put the lid on top of the rails instead of between them.
I made some smaller gifts for my grade seven class tonight, which I’ll give them tomorrow. Students are starting to leave for the summer and I don’t want to miss them.
