Busy two weeks in 7th & 8th RTI! Some groups were researching candy corn, building the tallest candy corn cob, and inferring which liquid dissolved candy corn the fastest. Other groups were constructing notecard towers at least 24 in. tall and can hold weight while only using 100 index cards and 12 in. of tape. The last group was challenged to design a basket that could hold as much weight as possible. The only materials were construction paper and glue. Fun and challenging times in RTI! #STEM #STEAM
