Building Teamwork In 4th Grade

Submitted by sarah.ledingham on


During the first week of school 4th Graders in Mrs. Anderson's class explored working together by creating a cup pyramid without directly touching the cup. When they ran into problems building their pyramid we discussed how they could improve their strategy. They discovered that they had to listen to each other's ideas in order to build the pyramid the quickest and the strongest. Our class has made it a goal to use teamwork when working with partners, tables, and the whole class to help them do their best learning this year!

Their class motto is to be Peterson Strong. Peterson Strong is also a family motto for Mrs Peterson’s family to help her husband through his cancer battle.
