Penny Brigade

On Wednesday, October 28th the 5th-grade students worked together in a team building activity under the direction of Mrs. FitzPatrick and Ms. Davis.  Students were divided into 14 groups of 12 students.  Each group was given 1-minute to brainstorm strategies before the activity began.  The goal:  to transfer 8 pennies from one cup to another only using spoons.  Students were not allowed to communicate once the activity began.  We were so proud of how our students worked together to complete the task at hand.
