We have a new challenge! Can your class beat our “Clothespin Card Pass” score of 24? Videotape your class and let us know where to find the video (ie. Vimeo, Google Drive, YouTube) by leaving a comment with this post. By the way, our class was significantly smaller the day we shot this video because it was a snow day.

.

All grades are welcome to participate in this challenge – even grownups! There’s no need to get fancy with your video (unless you want to!); unedited video of your class beating our record is fine.

UPDATE:

Mme Marnie‘s classes took our challenge. Follow the links to see their videos:

How high will the grade 5s stack the buckets this year? Last year’s class managed an impressive height of 34 buckets. You can find last year’s tower on Episode 6 of Portable TV.

Does your class has what it takes to beat our “Over-Under” score of 47? Videotape your class and let us know where to find the video (ie. Vimeo, Google Drive, YouTube) by leaving a comment with this post.
