The Great Lego Family Challenge

by Mr. MartellIn 2nd grade the boys are

challenged to develop a boat using a square piece of

aluminum foil. Their first test is to place penny

passengers on the boat. The top 2 teams that succeed at this are then entered into

the Great Lego Family Challenge. Using their boat

they have to get 22 Lego people and 26 pieces of luggage to successfully

survive on the water. Last year and up until the last

2nd grade class no one was able to complete the challenge until Mrs. Weitzman's and Ms.

Orlando's class came up to the lab. It was between the team of Rocco Coschigano, Robert Jacobson and the

team of Will Forshner, David Beeson. Rocco and

Robert went first and used a strategy that no other

team had used. Their boat ended up sinking but Will

and David paid close attention and used their strategy. As a result of

their wonderful teamwork they were the first 2nd

grade team to complete the challenge at the lower

school.
