After reading Room on the Broom, Ms. Tasker's class teamed up with Mrs. Nicholson for a STEAM challenge — design a new broom! Collaborating together and using only tape, scissors and eight straws, students engineered creative broom designs that had to sit at least one inch off the ground. What a fun way to connect reading, problem-solving, and hands-on learning! 💡📚🎃
