Starting last Friday, and finishing today, the class took on a challenge to build the tallest and sturdiest structure using nothing but Legos, teamwork, and their engineering know-how.
After getting into teams, they assigned each member a role. Only one person on each team could get the Legos out of the bin, and that person could not build. The rest were builders. We quickly learned that getting the right materials for the job is a kind of important... :)
Forming a game plan...
Discussing a strategy...
Building begins...
Picking the right pieces...
Testing the structure for sturdiness...
Rethinking plans...
Winner: Sturdiest Base
...and the only one to use outriggers!
Winner: Tallest Structure
Winner: Most Creative Structure
And because Legos are so much fun....
MY STRUCTURE! I am waiting for my appeal to go through...
