    Dear first graders and families:

    We have been busy studying inventors since December. You have studied
    historical figures and even discovered how kids just like you can create
    something new and special (like earmuffs!). This learning process is driven by
    our fourth IB Unit How We Express Ourselves. The central idea of our IB unit is:
    Innovators create to address challenges and opportunities.

    For the conclusion of this unit, each student will become an inventor!
    (These inventions are just prototypes we are celebrating ideas. They do not
    have to actually work.) Here are some examples we have learned about in
    class:
    Caines Arcade: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=faIFNkdq96U
    The Kid Presidents Cat Friendly Vacuum Cleaner: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75okexRzWMk

    PART 1:
    By now, you have already:
    - Identified a challenge in your daily life or the world around you.
    - Brainstormed ways to solve the problem.
    - Developed an invention to solve the problem or create
    opportunities for people to do new or better things.
    Your Invention Plan is going home today with this letter.

    PART 2:
    Next, you will:
    - Use the Invention Plan to gather materials and put together your invention at home.
    - Try it out! Do you need to make any changes or improvements?
    - Bring your invention to school.

    PART 3:
    Back at school, you will create a presentation to show the
    importance of your invention. You may choose how to share your
    invention with the class (poster, brochure, video, etc.) We will work on
    this February 2-3 and February 6. The presentation should explain:
    - The need or challenge in your world.
    - The invention you came up with to solve the problem.
    - How your invention changes the lives of other people.
    - Who will use your invention.

    Remember A really good invention makes the world more awesome. Because the world is
    full of problems. Theres also lots of problem solvers! The Kid President

    Good luck! We cant wait to see all of our problem solvers in action!

    - The First Grade Team
