Calculate the Pattern
Danielle Felicien
Third grade math students demonstrated their mathematical understanding and critical thinking skills by engaging in conversations about patterns and by actively exploring, analyzing, and making connections within patterns.
High-leverage math routines and pattern exploration engaged students in mathematical thinking and fostered their ability to recognize, describe, extend, and make predictions based on patterns.

Engineering Design Process- Creating a Safe Passage for Sea Turtles
Chassity Miller
In this lesson, students are working collaboratively to create a prototype for a safe passage to cross the road safely.
Students share their discovery with materials of how they created their prototype to create the safe passage for turtles. In this prototype, many have discovered how it can help other animals
Prior to doing this lesson, students did a PBL lesson on the effects of litter on the endangerment of sea turtles in our area. After doing the virtual field trip at the Georgia Sea Turtle Hospital, students will create a safe passage for sea turtles using the engineering design process. Students will use a modified lesson plan from Teach Engineering to collaboratively work together.

Marshmallow Catapults
Crystal Confer
Students are working to create catapults out of popsicle sticks, rubber bands, and spoons to launch mini marshmallows. They are changing variables to see if distance outcomes change.
In this lesson students will create a catapult to launch marshmallows. Variables will be changed to determine if outcome is changed.
