Next, students were given a Lego figure, a straw, one coffee stirring stick, small piece of tape, 3 inches of string and a pair of scissors. They were then given 15 minutes to construct the water shoes.
Students who were able to have their Lego figure stand (on water without tipping over) for more than 30 seconds reached SUCCESS!
Our final step was writing a reflective summary of what we learned in their Unit PowerPoint about engineering from today's activity. Students also took a picture of their creation and screen clipped it into their summary essay using their netbook to show their parents. Champion students did a wonderful job today!
