Our Dads are SuperHeros: Construction

It was such a wonderful time having some of our Dads and Uncles in to help us build three Marble runs out of wood. We were learning how to co-operate with each other and make a marble track that worked! Our Dads help us tremendously with the plan, sawing, nailing, constructing, testing retesting, and reflecting. Such a great way to revise our understanding of the design process we learned about last term. Dads /Uncles, you really are our Superheros!
