Students in Ms. Goodwin's Technology Engineering and Design class work together as a team to reproduce a replica of a hidden object that is made out of K'NEX's. Only one team member can see the hidden object and they have to describe the object to try and get it built correctly. Communication is key!
These are the smiling faces behind our school-wide morning announcements this week.
