3rd Graders Learn About Engineering Practices
3rd Graders Learn About Engineering Practices
Ms. Kelly's 3rd grade class learned about different engineering practices during Flex Time. The students were asked to build the tallest towers possible. They then had certain criteria they had to follow when constructing the tower. Additionally, they had to abide by certain constraints such as the quantity of paper cups and the time allotted to build the structure. Everyone really enjoyed this hands-on activity!
