Attention:  Parents

Going on a Material Hunt

As part of our Materials, Objects and Everyday Structures unit, we are going to do a STEM project at school.  We are in need of materials to be brought to school by Friday March 31, 2023.  We are going to be Engineers and we are going to build a playground structure out of everyday objects/materials from home.

Some materials we are going to using could be:

-paper towel/toilet paper rolls

-canned tins (no sharp edges)

-popsicle sticks/pipe cleaners/straws/toothpicks

-milk/juice/tetra cartons (cleaned)

-tinfoil/wrapper containers/plastic containers

-loose parts

-paper/fabric/yarn/foam/felt

-lego pieces

-cardboard

-paper/plastic cups

-glue/tape/markers

-other (whatever they really want to use to be engineers) 🙂

I have enclosed a rubric of how we will be marked.  This is part of our final mark and we are learning to present orally in front of the class too.

We will use our Science words like:

-span a gap, contain an object, support a load, rigid, flexible,stable

I will provide the base of their playground (bristol board).   If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to call or ask.
