Marshmallow Challenge

Students were given a STEM challenge to complete this morning!  In small groups, they were asked to build the tallest tower using spaghetti, tape and one marshmallow.  The twist was that the marshmallow had to be on the top!  This was a challenging task to be sure!  Afterwards we reflected...

"The first time it fell and we rebuilt it so it was more stable"

 "Ours kept breaking so we made it smaller"

"We weren't so gentle so the spaghetti broke, so we got more gentle"

"The key in one word - BASE"
