1st Days of Art: 2nd Grade

Save Fred!

We're back with another creative challenge, and this time the stakes are high!   Fred the worm, who is not very skilled at swimming, is lost at sea on a capsized boat.   Can you and your partners save Fred by retrieving his life preserver and putting it on him?  Here's the catch, you can't touch Fred or his things with your hands!  Only paperclips!



Teams discovered new ways to use the paper clips, like unfolding them and creating hooks.  They also saw the power of teamwork, noting that none of them could save Fred alone.  Some teams failed multiple times before rescuing Fred, and that's okay!   The important part is to keep trying and to try to learn from the failures!
