Checking in before break at Twin Chimneys. Amy Houston’s fourth-graders were trying to wrangle a science lesson inspired by a story they read about cowboys. Working in teams to engineer a lasso out of plastic shopping bags, the students had to design and test their creation and throwing technique on their chairs. While none of the throwing techniques matched those they had read about, several managed to rustle up their runaways and bring them back to the herd. #TeacherProud
