- As explained in our read-aloud and video messages, design something, like your own school! You could use ideas from our read aloud AND/OR think of more ideas, like make your own sport or t-shirt! Or there's the gift design challenge (Mother's Day is coming up!)!!! It's also Teacher Appreciation Week! Or other unique ideas, like the picture above (That's a ceiling with cut out flowers hanging!)! (With parent permission, if needed!) You can go to the Home or Math & Science pages here and scroll down to the May STEM Design Challenges! Globaldayofdesign.com has more ideas, too!

4. SHARE: If you'd like to share whatever you chose to design for the Global Day of Design Challenge and/or Teacher Appreciation Week, we'd love to see/hear about anything and everything!!! Email (please also put your school's name if you email!) OR reply in your Encore Library/Makerspace Google Classroom, if that's what your school is using, to send pictures and/or videos, or just write! Whatever is best for you.

*You are always welcome to send previous weeks' projects. Scroll down.*

Keep reading, writing, experimenting, and creating!
