Creative Thinker Challenge #2
This week students/families will be watching a short video about Simon in the Land of Chalk.
Every time Simon creates a chalk drawing it comes to life in the Land of Chalk. In this silent video, Simon draws a chameleon, then must enter the land of chalk to help the characters there. The chameleon is causing havoc for everyone. Simon must find a way to catch the chameleon.
Students are then tasked with designing their own chameleon trap and drawing it with sidewalk chalk. They will share these on our Flipgrid.
