The First Rule of Heavy Lifting...
...is "many hands make light work". Today we found this to be true in two ways: literally (as we lifted some projects which are getting pretty big) and metaphorically, as teams broke into mini-teams to tackle individual components of tough projects.
We're working on a Smash-O-Tine, which will drop a mass onto a watermelon...
...a giant claw machine...
...fake heavy objects made out of mache and foam...
There was lots of great collaboration among our young builders--offering help to one another, and brainstorming solutions with peers before asking adults. Awesome to see.
We've got three more days of Heavy Lifting, stay tuned.
