2nd Grade Idea Lab Update

 Second graders have been hard at work this quarter!  We got our creative juices flowing right off the bat! The students were challenged to create something that represented themselves using only one piece of paper, scissors, and coloring tools. 


Then, we jumped right into our First Lego League Unit-- Masterpiece! 


First Lego League involves a bit of convergent thinking-- building models exactly as shown in images to try out robotic programming as well as divergent thinking-- building models and creating robotic programming using our creativity and imagination.  
The goal for the FLL Masterpiece season is for students to create a Team Model that showcases their team's passion and interests.  The Team Model must include a robotic component, show innovation, and impact on the world.  
Team members must work effectively together and of course, have fun! 
After our Team Models are complete, we will work on a display board and produce a presentation for judges and an audience. We are excited to show you all of our learning and discoveries on Saturday, November 18th.  More details will be coming about this event!
Please save the date. You won't want to miss it!
