Buddy Challenge Time

Today with our buddy class we did the marshmallow and spaghetti challenge.
The challenge was to make a tall tower which had to stand by itself.
During the challenge we used Growth Mindset thinking because we challenged ourselves, had the right attitude and showed lots of perseverance.
At the end of the challenge some of the groups understood that to fail is the first step in learning something new because as you can see by the photos some of the towers failed!
We had loads of fun!
