Maple's Core 8 and algebra students in Ms. Byrne's class have been kicking off the school year by building their problem-solving skills and learning the power of collaboration! Students have been challenged to think creatively, take risks, and work together with activities like solving riddles on vertical dry-erase boards, designing landing gear to help alien friends land safely on Earth, and escaping with Breakout EDU lockboxes. Along the way, students are learning that mistakes are where the thinking happens. Our Mustang mathematicians are embracing risk-taking, trying new things, collaborating with others, and sticking with a problem even when it gets challenging.
