Since then, they have been thoughtfully organizing and designing their displays to highlight key components of their inventions, including the real-life problem they identified, their innovative solution, and the thinking behind it.\r\n\r\nThis display work has become a powerful part of the project. It has helped our 4th graders strengthen their typing and organizational skills while also giving them the opportunity to reflect deeply on their learning and creative process.\r\n\r\nStudents are currently making final touches to both their inventions and their display boards, proudly showcasing their knowledge and ideas. Next semester, these boards will be displayed in the hallway for the entire school community to see, allowing others to learn from and be inspired by the students' creativity, problem-solving, and innovation.\r\n\r\nThank you for supporting us with this opportunity at Lida Hooe Elementary!
