Several students who are usually hesitant to participate jumped right in, confident and engaged as they built and experimented.\r\nNext, students will use these materials to support our science and math lessons by exploring balance, stability, and structure. They'll continue to plan, build, test, and reflect on their designs, strengthening both STEM skills and communication.
