The Popcorn Challenge!

Hello Everyone!

We had a fabulous and short week in Room 13! We had a lot of students away this week! We hope everyone is feel healthy and is back to school on Monday.

First, we started a new unit in science. We are working as junior engineers! Engineers plan, make blueprints, follow instructions, find and solve problems, work as a team, build and more! This week, we were given our first engineering challenge. We had to create a new popcorn bag for Cineplex Theatre. Our first step, was to plan and discuss our design. Then, we built prototypes. Next, we gave each other feedback. Finally, we tested the popcorn bags!





Here are pictures of our process and our final designs! The winners were the Pop-Tanic (ship shaped popcorn bag)!

Finally, we started instructional writing by teaching others how to make peanut butter and jelly sandwiches!

Have a great long weekend!

Love Room 13
