STEM in Room 4

Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math =STEM
Room 4 explored tower building today. We had 2 materials, clothespins and tongue depressors! Small groups collaborated on design and configuration. This was our first day to explore. First graders are comfortable making their "own" tower. The big idea today was to "talk" to your group and "share" and "collaborate" on the best way to build the base of the tower. This will be an ongoing project, and I am excited to see how each group tried to solve the problem, "How can I build UP with these materials?" You are welcome to experiment at home!
