Engineers are like magicians, but with math!
Mr. Crosby put his students’ engineering skills to the test yesterday with a fun paper tower competition! Students had 40 minutes, 20 sheets of paper, and one roll of tape to create the tallest tower that could support the weight of a can of soup. Students had to get creative using physics and mathematics principles to provide support and structure for their towers.
Looks like some of our Warriors could have a bright future in engineering!
