Our students have been busy exploring geometry in a hands-on way during STEAM class in the library! (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics)
They started by learning about vertices, edges, and different 2D and 3D shapes. Then came the challenge—building shapes using marshmallows and toothpicks, followed by constructing towers to test which structure could hold the most weight.
The winning tower held 38 pencils and FOUR books! Congratulations to Beckett, Jace, John, Blake, and Osten! https://www.facebook.com/reel/2230382190790972
