On Nov. 13, Harborfields second graders in Kelly Harley’s class at Washington Drive Primary School read the book, “The Most Magnificent Thing,” by Ashley Spires and proceeded to make their own creations out of recycled materials.
The project combined science, technology, engineering, art and mathematics, as well as drove home the book’s theme of perseverance and determination. Students expressed creativity and imagination as they designed blueprints and built their own magnificent creations, ranging from bird feeders to dog beds, using egg cartons, soda bottles and other innovative engineering supplies.
