Kindergarten showcased their skills
Kindergarten students showcased their skillful use of shapes, color, forces and motions to create the most cunning Leprechaun traps! Their wits were tested as they used STEM principles such as balance, gravity, and geometry when engineering their contraptions. Although it is unknown if any Leprechauns were actually caught, the invention process was an incredibly fun display of ingenuity and problem-solving skill. This creative exercise helped further develop the skills that are essential for the youngsters’ cognitive development. We are proud of the creative minds at our lower school! 👏
