And now sharing the building we constructed together!
We built four floors of learning fun for all ages.
An elevator was installed to access all levels.
This unit invited children to make physical science connections through construction of structures, measurement and comparison, and experimentation with materials. Children were introduced to a design process and the definition of construction expanded to include constructing buildings, songs, plays, and stories. They had fun!
Incredible work Team Cornell!
If you happen to be in school, please stop by to view the plans and model the children built!
You can help: If you have options, please send a smaller water bottle. The tall ones tip over often, and are loud when they do.
We are experiencing spills. A lower profile bottle is helpful, thanks! ♥️
