Homes for the Peeps!

With toothpicks, peeps and jellybeans everyone designed and built their own bird nest or birdhouse.  The only limitation was that it needed to fit their peep. The students engineered some great designs learning about stability, shapes and engaging in much problem solving along the way!











We tallied our classes favorite jellybean- PURPLE! We also wrote comparision sentences about our favorite color jellybeans.  Henry's jellybean is as orange as a tiger.

Eli's jellybean is as red as a rose!

Alaina's jellybean is as purple as a violet!

Keighan's is as Green as the Packers!

Jaxon's jellybean is as black as a bat!
