Show and Tell Tuesday: December

Sorry I am a day late to the party...better late than never.

I am linking up with Forever in 5th Grades Monthly Linky Party called Show and Tell Tuesday.  

Here are a few things that I'd like Show and Tell!

My engineering classes have been building structures.  My kids love my new Kinex set from Donor's Choose.  I highly recommend this building set.

 My students are creating bridges using popsicle sticks that can allow a car to pass and hold weight.  This group had one of the best designs.

My family getting ready for our 27th annual tree tour progressive dinner.  My favorite tradition.  We even added shirts this year!!!

I got a new iphone 8 from xmas and I am obsessed with the camera.  I took this quickly today and I love the lighting.

I am teaching until Friday...and yes, I will be teaching!!!! We don't do holidays or celebrations in my district.  My students will be testing their bridges.

Show and Tell Tuesday November 2017

I am linking up with Forever in 5th Grades Monthly Linky Party called Show and Tell Tuesday.  

I have been so busy and miss blogging.  I am getting back my gr0ove.

Here are a few things that I'd like Show and Tell!

I have taken on a new role as the fifth grade engineering teacher.  This was my first thing I made for my classroom.  I bought all materials at Michaels.  I drilled holes and wired the metal pieces to the sign.  The wooden letters are glued on with craft glue.

I am so lucky to have a handy husband.  We made a lego wall.  It is plywood screwed on to the wall.  We bought epoxy and glued the panels on to the plywood.  Use Legos to hold pieces together while it dries or they will slide.

I love my new shoes.  My students think I custom made them.  Check out Groove bags.  They took awhile to ship, they came from China.

Another project my handy husband made, a wind tunnel.  I volunteered to work the science night at one of our elementary schools.  It was a huge success!!!!  I then used it to help with our parachute designs.

I love this adorable girl's flying contraption!!!

Show and Tell Tuesday July 2016

I am linking up with Forever in 5th Grades Monthly Linky Party called Show and Tell Tuesday.  

Here are a few things that I'd like Show and Tell!

My family took our first trip to Portland, Maine.  We visited several breweries and wineries.  Love having children who planned the day for me.  (It was the first)

I am attracted to pirates!!!  And breweries!

Here is a project that we worked on the last few weeks of school.  They designed mini-golf courses with four holes and a list of geometry criteria.

Summer is the time to get back on track...I literally mean the track

Getting steps in is a challenge when we are not in school!

Love my new sneakers.

They had these cute mugs at Target, perfect gift card holder

for my assistant.
