Happy Friday Kindergarten Parents! Next week, your children will begin their first STEM Challenge during our live class. *Please check your child's daily schedule for the time of their LIVE Class.* We will be using the Engineering Design Process to try to solve the problem: Can you build a device that you can push or pull to move 5 pebbles at least 3 ft. without breaking? Students will be learning the problem and drawing out their ideas this week so the only materials needed are pencil and paper. Have a great weekend! -Mrs. Williams
