Marshmallow Challenge

For the Marshmallow Challenge, my team used 20 pieces of spaghetti, a yard of tape, a yard of string, and one marshmallow. We had 18 minutes to make the tallest tower out of everything that was provided. I wrote down the plan and we pretty much followed it, except for when we used the string. It came out wrong, so we had to change it and instead it wasn't straight. It was leaning, so we called it the leaning Eiffel Tower (well I think that's what we called it). Our first attempt we did, it was about to fall but the second time, it came out okay. We worked together and that's why our tower thing didn't fall. The people in my group were Ella, Conner, and Joshua. I think we did the challenge because Mrs. Sedgwick was testing us on our teamwork. My team wasn't first place but we were second and that's okay because the team I'm in is going to win another time, somehow. I think we did pretty well. At least our tower didn't fall! If we got a chance to do it again, I think we could make it taller. We had more ideas so we could try a new way. I was glad to be in my group.
