On Friday, we celebrated our student's at the November Bennett Live! It was such a great way to end the week and begin our Thanksgiving break.
2nd graders expanded their coding knowledge this week with Dash and the Blockly app. Students learned about the parts, how to use the robots safely, and how to use block coding. Together they had to problem solve learning a new way to code.
3rd grade applied their know of mechanical energy by building marble roller coasters this week. After a brief vocabulary review, students planned their design, built the structure, then tested and revised. They were challenged to include at least 1 hill, 1 loop, and exit path.
