Our Splash Pad Project was a big and fun real-world math and science team project that asked students to design a splash pad (a ficitional one!). This project included a field trip, guest architects coming out to visit our classroom, a presentation that have guest judges, and a selected team to present to City Council at their May meeting. Students worked extremely hard on this project. I am so incredibly proud of their work! Great job 4th grade! Below are the videos of the presentations, pictures of the students working throughout the project, and a link to the news articles covered by KNOP-TV and North Platte Telegraph.
