This week we worked together to solve different problems. We were set a challenge to move the water from one bucket to another bucket. We weren’t allowed to lift the bucket or use spoons to transport the water. We had to work with each other to come up with a solution. We had so much fun and we completed the challenge!
We have also been learning to log on to the computers, find the drawing app and draw a picture. We really enjoy using the laptops!
