Spaghetti Marshmallow Towers: A Scientific Method Investigation. Think Like a Scientists Unit Mrs. Bryant

Question: What design will create the tallest self-supporting tower?

Materials: Large piece of paper to build on. (can’t go off the paper) 20 pieces of spaghetti 1 yard of tape 1 yard of string 1 large marshmallow Scissors

Rules: 20 minutes to complete the tower: it is HANDS OFF when the timer goes off. The tower must stay on the paper. Everyone must participate. The tallest self-supporting tower at the end wins “Best Design”.
