We did a triangle base since the triangle is the strongest shape, and we connected the straws together since we had a limited amount of tape.

We connected the straws and tried to use as less tape as possible so we can use it later for support, we also ended up securing the base to the ground with another triangle. 

Strength - It stood decently tall 

Opportunities - the straws were reused so they aren't really strong

Understanding - I learned that making it balanced was really hard

Limitations - We only have one long strip of tape, and we needed more to support the base

WISCR - I think we were self motivated, because we got to push ourselves forward to coming up with strategies to make it balanced.
