Have you ever heard of the Global Cardboard Challenge? It truly is a PERFECT connection for our school and scholars!! This global effort challenges students all over the world to get involved in making cardboard creations, using only cardboard and other recyclable materials.

The Global Cardboard Challenge launched from the overwhelming global response to the short film, “Caine’s Arcade,” through the Imagination Foundation, in order to "foster and fund creativity and entrepreneurship in children around the world to raise a new generation of innovators and problem solvers who have the tools they need to build the world they imagine." Click here to read more about this challenge! All Cannon scholars are invited to participate in, Cannon's Cardboard Creations Challenge. All that choose to participate will make their cardboard creations at home. On Friday, October 10th, all Cardboard creations will be brought to school and all grade levels will participate in a school-wide Cardboard Creations Gallery Walk, in order to view all of the creative cardboard creations! All scholars that participate will earn a digital badge, in recognition of their innovative thinking and creative use of recyclable materials! We are also planning to keep the cardboard creations to make an awesome display for our Family Engineering Night, scheduled for November.  We can't wait to see what the 2nd graders create.
