HMS Spirit Week
First graders in Ms. Fegan's MTSS Math group have been working with shapes and decided to take on a challenge. First, they researched different towers, and then used craft materials to build their own towers. They used cones, cylinders, and rectangular prisms as the inspiration for their tower shapes. #backontrack
