Mrs. Gengo and Miss Kerwinâs 5th and 4th graders recently participated in an indoor "STREAM snow day". They worked together with strict parameters and materials to create the tallest marshmallow structure. They then moved to the gym for a snowball fight and discussed probabilities and fractions to see who could get the most snowballs to the other teamâs side after 2 minutes. It was a tight battle through all rounds! We then relaxed and enjoyed some hot chocolate and marshmallows with our friends. âď¸âď¸âď¸
