P6-Spaghetti and Marshmallow Challenge

As part of our Natural Disasters topic, we created buildings from spaghetti and marshmallow that we hoped could withstand a ‘table-shaking’ earthquake. Each team had a budget and each item had a price so we had to think carefully about the materials we needed. Our project Manager was responsible for the materials, the Treasurer was responsible for the budget, the Architect designed our structure and the Technology Director did the research. Afterwards, we tried out our structures to see if they could withstand an earthquake!
