P3 take STEM week to a whole other level

20th Mar 2019

Today's STEM challenge was to create a tunnel run for a toy car to pass through. It had to go from top to bottom, the tubes were not allowed to touch each other and we could only use tubes and masking tape. We were very busy in small groups, working together, with lots of co-operation and chat about how to make it work and who would do which job. Some people were even working on the stairs. We encountered many difficulties along the way but were able to solve them by working as a team. It took most groups about 45 minutes to finish their tunnel run and about 2 seconds for the car to travel through!
