Cardboard Creations

As a final activity in our Science Unit, we designed and constructed structures that met a pre-determined set of criteria. We used what we learned about materials, objects and structures to come up with our Success Criteria. 

Here are some of the structures we made:

After designing and building, we put our structures to the test.  We used a "wind machine" (a fan) to see if our structures would stay together and not fall in the wind.  The good news is: all of the structures we built were designed and created in a way that none fell over in the wind.  The bad news: we have no photos or video to document this testing because we were having way too much fun! ;)
