During the last couple weeks of school, Alexander Fleming and Lucas Habighorst and Elsie Dirks and Greta Lang (not pictured) designed and constructed a cardboard tower capable of holding the hammer. Great job!
Seventh graders in Mrs. Syrstad's English classes read The Amazing Generation. They had to interview an adult about their favorite childhood memories and relationship with technology. Then students wrote their own favorite memories and the favorite memories of the adult they interviewed. They sorted these favorite memories into two categories: tech and no tech. Not surprisingly, none of the favorite memories were centered on technology. It wad a great lesson and reminder that true fun, freedom, and friendship rarely stems from technology. 🤩
