Mme. MacDonald and her kids designed an awesome crazy contraption AND left you an encouraging message!
Mme. Stewart and her family designed a very yummy crazy contraption!
Mme. Bannister with a little help from Mr. Potato Head and a farting pig!
Sometimes our ideas don't work out the way we hoped! Mme. Doiron did several trials - she wants to use her crazy contraption to push the button on her XBox - Do you have any ideas of what else she can try?
Mme. Shea talked the little people at her house into building a crazy contraption for her!
