π Itβs Fall Break, but weβre still celebrating the great things our Cougars did before break! β€οΈπ€
Our 5th graders in Ms. Porterβs STEM class researched an endangered or rare animal and brought it to life through a piΓ±ata project! They explored how piΓ±atas are used in other cultures, incorporated those ideas into their designs, and finished by filling their creations with candy and smashing them! π¬π
Along the way, students practiced online research and learned about endangered species classifications, biomes, and cultural traditions. They also put English and metric measurements, structural engineering, and impact distribution into action. So much learning packed into one sweet project! πΎ
We hope our Cougar families are enjoying Fall Break! We canβt wait to have our kids and teachers back in the building on Monday! β€οΈπ€
