We have been exploring solids and liquids in our Foss Science program. After being introduced to several solid materials and naming their properties, the children were challenged to build a tower with their solids. Their goal was to use what they knew about the solids' properties to make the tower as high as possible. For example, the cup has a wide bottom and would make a good base. The tin foil was flexible and lightweight so it would be good to use at the top. We could have done this activity for hours! What a bunch of creative engineers!
