Building towers engages every student. I'm requesting one KAPLA 1000 Blocks Natural Unfinished Wood Pine Planks with Storage Box and Guide Book. In this engineering design project, each student will learn how to work cooperatively in a team. Each student must have equal say in how the building must be constructed. The wooden blocks are not interlocking. Students must use their own knowledge of balance and building to create a successful building. Kapla blocks are well made and can handle heavy use by older students. There is a competitive edge to the task. Teams are trying to build a tower that is taller than every other tower. Time is also a factor. Buildings will fall. With every fall is an opportunity to redesign a better building.
