Our AP Human & World Geography classes turned learning into an art form (and a snack time!) with the Orange Peel Challenge. Students mapped out the globe on an orange, peeled it, and tried laying it flat. The result? Rips, stretches, gaps, and a whole lot of lightbulb moments about map distortion! ππ»π€ ππ

Fun Day 1 in Chemistry! Students faced a tough rescue mission: Saving Sam. Sam the gummy worm who cannot swim found himself stranded on top of his capsized boat with his life preserver trapped underneath. Armed with only two paperclips and forbidden to use their fingers, teams had to design a plan, test ideas, and adjust on the fly. The task requires a team of students to work together to save Sam.
This fun challenge teaches the Engineering Design Process while building vital collaboration and perseverance skills. Every single team rose to the occasion and got Sam safely back to shore! Go Bears! ππ»π€
