Hi Team!  This week was a short on Team Spencer, but we got a lot done. Karl asked us to help him with our part of the school play and we accepted his challenge.  We read through stories of the Polynesian god Maui and found several stories that we wanted to turn into plays.  We then workshopped the stories in small groups and turned them into scenes.  We had a ton of fun showing our Maui scenes to each other and thinking of funny jokes we can put in the show.  Finally we learned a basic structure for writing a play and wrote our scenes down.  We have started printing class money and setting up businesses in order to create a sustainable economy in our class.  Friday the class voted on the president. Results will be released next week.  Will Mason start a second term as Team Spencer President or will someone unseat him?  In math, we are finally finished with our paper measurements and will work on organizing the pieces so that they all fit as economically as possible on 4 foot by 8 foot pieces of wood.  It will take a lot of math and creativity to make it all fit.
