They are so proud of their accomplishment that, of course, they are sad to have to clean it up and start over the next day. So each day they work a little smarter, saving big chunks of cubes intact and assembling the structure more efficiently. They each take on a job. The next thing I know they have roped cubes around the perimeter of the classroom, measuring the distance in feet, estimating the number of cubes all total, and creating patterns. My favorite part, though, is to watch is them working together.Mrs. Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18174828130014332988noreply@blogger.com
