Final Balls and Ramp Challenge

Each team had a challenge to solve from building a ramp with an uphill and downhill or corner,  a jump, or a target.  Teams made a plan and then tried to execute their plan.  Every team hit a stumbling block.  Through hard work and persistence, all of the teams completed a successful project. We discussed and wrote about our work the next day.  A big part of the discussion was the importance of solving the problems.  The children realized that the problems led to new and better solutions.
