Tippecanoe High School students in the Spanish class of Ashley Ridge participated in a fun cultural activity. In parts of Mexico and Latin America, families color hollowed out eggs during the spring and fill them with confetti. They seal off the open side of the egg with tissue paper. Then on holidays such as Easter, they have a cascarones fight. The goal is to crush your confetti- filled egg on someone's head! #WEareTIPP
Science is fascinating! LT Ball Intermediate students learned about density and created lava lamps during this afternoon's Science Club with advisors Kim Fischer and Melissa May. FUN! #WEareTIPP
