TALLEST TOWER CHALLENGE
For this activity in the beginning of the school year, the students had to build the tallest tower with 20 spaghetti pieces and place a marshmallow on top. This took teamwork, creativity, engineering design and finally patience. Since this was a TED talk challenge, students discovered that kindergarten students faired better over engineers, teachers etc due to their ability to work as a team and test prototypes along the way before final testing.
