4th Grade Calder's CIrcus!

In fourth grade we are building circuses from recyled materials and using engineering skills to manipulate our creations.  First we watched Calder's Circus (video above!) and saw how this famous American artist used imagination and play to create five suitcases full of  circus acts that he brought back and forth from Paris to the US, performing for friends for years.

Here are some in progress shots of our students working out their ideas!
