Cup Holder Challenge

 

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.

My goal for participation today while working in my group is… To be as respectful as possible

Why I think my plan will be successful: it will be strong and far apart from other cup
