HELP HARRY!

Dear Third Graders,

      Our "Harrys" are very happy now that they have their new perches and can watch over us as we learn! I was very impressed at how persistent we were and how we worked as a team to overcome challenges!

      A big shout out goes to www.theteacherstudio.com for this idea!

      The task: Build a perch for Harry so he can more easily see around our classroom.


The materials: 5 pipe cleaners, 2 index cards, 2 cupcake holders, a cup, foil and a foot of painters tape

     The Task:  5 minutes to brainstorm and share ideas.
                     10 minutes to build.
                     10 minutes to test your perch with your Harry and make any necessary modifications. 

     The results are as follows!











     On Monday, we will reflect back upon our work. Watch some videos I took of us in action. Review trends from our teamwork evaluations. And....

...read this great book about how we each bring unique skills to our team that can help us succeed.  
That it is important to encourage our teammates, offer help, ask for help, participate equally, and stay on task


Bear Hugs,
