First graders have been reading different versions of The Three Little Pigs. They got to do a stem activity today where they chose what kind of house to build. They could use toothpicks, popsicle sticks, or Legos. Then we got to test if the houses would stay standing when the big bad wolf (a hairdryer) came to blow them over!
