Science fun with 7/8th grade boys.....

It's been almost a year since I last went to Ann Connor Dunning's class in South Middle School. Ann is one of the most accomplished middle school teachers I have ever seen.

South School responds to the educational and social needs if its students really well.

This past week, I made a surprise visit to Ann's 7th grade class and had some science fun with the kids, giving them the challenge to make a tower from two sheets of paper - then design and balance shapes on its top.

They did well.
Can you make a tower from a sheet of paper?














Can you balance a bird on your second tower?
