Destination Imagination Strikes Again!

We are currently working on a Fairy Tale / Fractured Fairy Tale unit. Students have been looking at the components of a fairy tale and are in the process of writing their very own fractured fairy tale (stay tuned for some green screen videos as we share our fairy tales!). 

Yesterday we completed a Destination Imagination project. Students were given three tasks:

* Build a new bed for Goldilocks (that must be big enough and strong enough to hold her! As well as baby bear, mama bear and papa bear needed to be supported by this bed as well.) 

*Engineer an escape route for Rapuzel (she is tired of people pulling on her hair, therefore she wanted a different route out of her castle that was safe!!)

*Construct an arrow for Robin Hood (The arrow must support a full sized non-sharpened pencil and be able to hit a specific target)

Students had a wide range of materials available to them for the building process. We invited Mrs. Barker's class to join us as they are also working on a fairy tale unit. With a partner - here are the projects our students created! 

The Planning Process!
