A group of high-achieving fourth and fifth grade math students at Chippewa Elementary School recently participated in a STEM challenge during an activity held for the Math Olympiads.
During their recess period, a group of math super-students led by teacher Courtney Gordon challenged themselves with a STEM activity that required students to build the tallest tower possible using 12 plastic eggs and a small amount of Play-Doh. Working together, each student group developed a design for their tower and used problem-solving techniques to accomplish the task.
