Mr. Trouy, a contractor and father of Luke Truoy ‘18, spent time this morning helping the 4th graders on their library renovation project. He brought in tools like a laser distance measure, scale ruler, and blue prints for students as they use their math and engineering skills to create plans for a mock library renovation.
Next students will interview other students and teachers to get their feedback on what they’d like to see in a new library.
When they've finished the planning stage, they will go to Home Depot and Ikea to "buy" materials and items. Each team has a budget of $1,000.
When they've finished, Mr. Trouy will return so that the students can present their plans to a panel of adult experts.
In our community of learners, we help each other learn like CHAMPIONS!! There is always another way to try and a friend to help. Believe in the power of YET! We CHALLENGE our minds to CHANGE our minds. And it is ok to be still and quiet.
