The students have been having a blast building different structures and exploring different building materials.
Students have used paper rolls to make a stable vase that can hold at least one flower. They have also build models of animals using clay to explore the design of stability and hold loads found in nature.
Check out some of the pictures of students attempting to build the most stable tower using one of their own designs. We had a lot of fun!
We are currently building model houses using the supplies you donated - Thank-you! In this experiment we have used the lessons learned from the famous story The Three Little Pigs to guide our material selection for building. Each student is working with a partner to build a house that can withstand the "wolf" (me). I will be using an industrial sized fan, a hair dryer and spray bottle to test each house for stability and safety. Stay tuned for pictures!
