Today’s Challenge: Using only provided materials ( 6 straws, 1 piece of paper, a piece of tinfoil, 12 inches of masking tape, 2 paperclips, 2 pieces of string, 1 envelope, and 2 pipe cleaners) create a structure that holds two cups as high as possible and as far apart as possible.
Teamwork Rubric Focus:
My goal for participation today while working in my group is…
My Individual Plan <insert photo of sketch and/or type out a plan> My plan is to put the paper on the top so the cups are far apart but also taped down and use pipe cleaners and straws to hold the bottom.
Why I think my plan will be successful: because I have faith and trust it
My Groups Plan <insert photo or sketch and/or type out a plan>
We chose this plan because… it was the best one
Possible challenges that may come up during construction… break or fall
Each group member will be responsible for… documenting and building
After the Build

I really liked how you included pictures in your post. You and your group had some great ideas! Can you take a few minutes and go back to add some detail to your post? For example, what do you mean when you say your group’s area of growth is “doing more?” Can you please be more specific? Thank you! I look forward to reading your edits.
