A little girl loves to tinker and build so she sets out to build something magnificent. It doesn't go according to plan and she gets angry to the point of almost giving up. After taking a break, she can see the magnificent work she has all around her and combines her ideas to make the most magnificent thing ever!
We talked about the lesson she learned and how we can apply that to our own learning. The kiddos continue to refer to Rosie Revere and her first time flop and it makes my heart tingle with excitement!!!
I showed the kids a cardboard tube from a papertowel roll and asked them what they could build. Their challenge would be to create a toy from the papertowel roll.
Step 1. Brainstorm. List or sketch as many ideas as you can.
Step 2. Choose one idea and share with a buddy. Give and get feedback on how to build the toy.
Step 3. Sketch and plan your idea.
Step 4. Build your prototype!!!
The children took home their prototypes to share with their families!
