Physics Students Take the Marshmallow Challenge

One of the first Physics labs in Mr. Fisler's classes was... "The Marshmallow Challenge." This is a simple design exercise and team-building activity for small groups. The groups have to build the tallest free-standing structure from some spaghetti sticks, tape, and string and place one whole marshmallow on the top. Running the challenge requires about 1 hour and some simple household items. The exercise teaches essential lessons about the creative product development process and the nature of collaboration. 

Congratulations to the winning team: 
Gavin Biega, Colette Marchant,
Eli Goldberg and Kate Mullaney.
