chair design challenge

          The art teachers at Discovery in APS have done a chair design challenge and I wanted to start this year's 4th grade class with construction 3D. We began by interviewing our friends about what types of chairs they would want and shared out their results during a class conference. This was valuable for students got to learn the essential vocabulary within this class. Most of the vocabulary words were adjectives that would be helpful in describing the characteristics of a chair. 

Students interviewing each other about what types of chairs their friends would want.
