Today we did a fun review game that I stole from another teacher. Students toss a bean bag on a target with a point value. If it lands then they get a review question. If it's answered correctly their team gets the points.
Interesting to see their different strategies!

Lots of fun in Entrepreneurship class yesterday. We started with playing Disruptus and then did the Airplane Challenge from Empowered. Students competed to earn the most profit on paper airplanes that could fly at least 20 feet. 🛩️
