Library Shelf
Mark Twain Elementary - August 2018
STEM Challenge
Fourth and fifth students began the year with a STEM challenge. Their objective was to design an elevated, safe habitat for Harry (the puffball) so that he could look out over the library. Below is a video of one group's presentation. Thank you Mark Twain PTO for the Walmart gift card. It was used to purchase supplies for STEM activities.
