Grant also reached the final goal of 100 books!!!!  He got a ribbon, certificate and got to sit in the reading chair all day long!

Building an Airport

Our class is building the Air Traffic Control Tower for our airport and flight to the Amazon Rainforest in South America.  I divided the project into 5 groups and the children signed up for the part that they wanted to help build.  

The first group decided to make the windows by drawing large windows on each side of the control tower.  

 

Then, after the windows were cut out, they taped clear wrap to the box for the windowpanes. 

Our next group looked a lots of pictures of control towers before they decided to paint ours blue and white.  

 

Every air traffic control tower has to have powerful satellites and radio antenna to communicate with all of the airplanes.  

The group that worked on the instrument panel decided that we needed buttons and knobs.

Finally, the last group worked to make our computer screens and keyboards.

The finished Air Traffic Control Tower!
